Easy to reach from a side-lyer!
For children on a Side-Lyer, reaching out can be frustrating. This brightly-colored toy makes it fun! The panel vibrates and lights-up when lightly touched and the ball chains provide wonderful sensations.

Play Tip!
Tip! The Sidelyer Toy can also be used with children with disabilities lying on a wedge. It encourages them to really reach out forward building upper body strength and control.

PLAY Tip
Grasping and Writing
Grippers are helpful for children with developmental delays. Grippers serve two purposes. They position the fingers properly around a larger diameter then a regular pencil, and they keep a dropped pen from rolling away. Position them low on the pen/pencil to give the child better control.
