PLAY Tip
Beginning To Use Switch Adapted Toys With Children With Special Needs
Since some children are easily distracted, it is best to remove distractions and setup toys in a manner that will keep the child interested and focused. In order to make a switch adapted toy stand out from the rest of the environment during play, place dark colored toys on a light surface, such as a towel. Place light colored toys on a dark surface. This will make it easier for children to see the cause and effect of pressing the switch activating the toy. There are many switch adapted to choose from - ranging from a cuddly bunny to a fierce dinosaur!
