Project Description

Children with limited mobility often do not receive the much needed exposure to socialization to appropriately cognitively develop. Existing research shows that enabling young children with self-control of their own environment can have meaningful impacts on the long term outcomes given such impairments as cerebral palsy or muscular dystrophy. One place to start and increase mobility is in the home. Imagine you are a toddler, who isn’t yet able to walk or crawl on your own, and you want play with a toy on the other side of the room.
