Do you think she has fun at school?
Both pictures are of Ellie and L in a toboggan made by the adaptive equipment studio at Ellie's school. To call it the adaptive equipment studio however is like calling Willie Wonka's chocolate factory the candy store. Molly who runs the studio is very much like Willie Wonka in that she is a creative genius who is also an OT and I think she has a fine artist background too. Either way she and her band of expert craftspeople make all sorts of things so that the kids can experience things they wouldn't be able to otherwise. The seats of the toboggan are made of tri-wall cardboard and painted by volunteers. Amazing stuff!

Wow! Looks great fun!!
I want a Molly. Or, failing that, I want a go in that thing. Think they could make one big enough for a 20 something?!
My wife's daughter has cerebral palsy and today, she is 26 years old. My wife have told me stories about their trips to hospitals and therapies years ago. Today's therapies are not the same as it was 14 to 19 years ago.
They make it more fun nowadays which is a good thing. :)
