Playtime for All! Adaptive and Accessible Toys

As we celebrate the 2022 holiday season and start checking gifts off our lists, here are some sites to find adaptive kids for kids of all ability to enjoy!

Enabling Devices offers a variety of switch-adapted toys, sensory-friendly objects, and other fun options! One of their best-sellers is the All That Glitters multi-dome.

Fat Brain Toys has a nearly-unlimited selection of toys for young children! Visitors can filter results by selecting their child’s specific issue from the list, and read a customer review under each item. This is a great resource for family, therapists, teachers, and anyone looking to give kids a unique toy for the holidays!

Fun and Function specializes in calming, sensory-friendly toys, clothes, and other products. Their search options can be tailored to fine or gross motor skills, mood and attention, tactile or visual stimulation, and oral and chewing motor skills. Their best sellers include tactile cushions, chewable fidget toys, and a foam roller

We hope these options give you some ideas for a unique and helpful gift for all the kiddos in your life!

I’m Joan, and I know home care from the inside out. I’ve navigated my daughter through 24/7 home care nursing and managed her PCA’s. I’ve helped my parents move into (and out of) assisted living, Medicare episodes, skilled nurse visits, home health aids, and PCAs. Sandwiched in all of that, I’ve helped coordinate home care equipment and supplies, physical therapists, occupational therapists, county workers, and medications (oh, the medications). I know emergency departments, children’s hospitals, cancer wards, cardiac floors, and specialty units. I can recite health insurance policies (and call their bluff). I know a lot of other things in life too, like Shakespeare, where to sit to see a great sunset over a lake, how to keep myself healthy, how to read a profit/loss statement and state statutes, when to use a comma, and that gratitude is one of the keys to success. So I’m going to have this blog and write about home care from time to time. I’ll include topics like current legislation, professional boundaries in a tricky environment, and being a caregiver. I’ll also post some guest blogs from clients and nurses. Join me in the conversation.
