Some children are unable to interact with toys, due to physical or sensory impairments. Play is such a vital component in a child’s development and should be accessible to all. Switch adapted toys make playing with toys accessible to children of all abilities. Let’s look at some of the possibilities!
TOY CONTROLLERS
Toy Controllers bring a whole new dimension to playing with switch adapted toys!
SIMPLY WORKS SEND AND CONTROL
With a SimplyWorks Send, you can use a normal, wired switch remotely to control a toy on the other side of the room, when it is connected to a SimplyWorks Control. These control boxes offer different modes: a normal single press; or you can latch them on, so the activity will continue after the switch is released, until it is pressed again; or you can set them for a specific time period.
PARTICIPATION BOX
Our brand new Participation Box lets you control an electrical appliance by switch. Simply plug your appliance (radio, hairdryer, milkshake blender etc) into the box, plug in a switch and off you go!
SIMPLYWORKS ENERGISE
The SimplyWorks Energise lets you control two appliances, by up to six different switches (even a combination of wired and wireless switches), so the opportunities for collaboration and turn taking are limited only by your imagination.
BJOY TOY BOX
Also new is our Toy Control Box – such a brilliant way to let a child choose which toys they would like to play with. You can plug up to four different switch adapted toys into the box, and through an on-screen computer interface, the child chooses which one they would like to activate. It’s accessible by touch screen, scanning, eye gaze or any other method, so a truly empowering play option. Great for keeping attention for longer, teaching cause and effect, teaching scanning – and just plain fun.
