Wheelchairs, scooters, and hand controls on automobiles enhance mobility. Adapted car seats and wheelchair restraints augment transportation safety. At work sites, special computers, ramps, and telephone headsets mean fewer barriers to employment. For fun and games, there are special wheelchairs for organized sports, and tricycles and bicycles for children who use wheelchairs. Adaptive switches can help a child play with toys and games.
Easels are also adaptive for young artists in wheelchairs and slanders.
Exercise machines for people who use wheelchairs can provide a great workout for the upper and lower body, as well as arms and legs. There is even a bowling ball with a handle. Acquiring assistive technology does not just happen once in a lifetime. The type of device needed may change depending on a child's age, newly acquired skills, and physical challenges. Some devices are better leased, some borrowed, some purchased.
