Adapted Toy Giveaway
As a parent, therapist, or family member of a person with complex physical needs, you know how hard it can be to find activities, games, and toys that fit their needs. It is SO important to us that we find ways for the children of our community to be able to independently participate, play, and engage in meaningful, fun, and exciting ways! Hence, the birth of the Adapted Toy Giveaway.
Each winter, Believe Beyond Ability and its' volunteers adapt nearly 100 toys to make them more accessible to children and adults with fine and gross motor disabilities. Donations provided by our community fund the purchase of these toys, and our AMAZING volunteers come out to help us create adaptations. For many toys, this means creating the ability to plug in a switch (jelly bean switch/button) so that they can access it wherever they have independent movement (e.g., hand, elbow, head, toes, etc).
It is an INCREDIBLE sight to see a child with a disability play independently.
Each December, Believe Beyond Ability hosts an Adapted Toy Giveaway, to provide these newly adapted toys FREE to a family with a child with a disability. This year's tentative date for the Giveaway is Saturday December 4th, 2021. Check back here, or follow us on Instagram and Facebook, to get updates on the date/location.
