The sophomore class spent their day on Wednesday doing a Service Learning Project with Marcy from the Anne Carlsen Center. They helped adapt common kids toys to be accessible for children with disabilities. We made many button switches and connected some of them to battery operated toys like plush talking Mini Mouses, a singing school bus, and bubble blowers. These switches can be attached to trays, headrests or arm rests to allow kids to activate push button toys using their palm, head, elbow, etc.. This was a wonderful project teaching not only the importance of community service, but also diversity awareness!
Do you have some young kids at home? Play based activities and movement are so important for our young kids to develop. Here are a few activities that will promote play along with beginning to recognize letters in the alphabet.
