Great toy for play therapy

Post by momofnickelman »

My son Nicholas just had his 6th birthday right before Christmas. My DH found the greatest toy for his birthday. It is called the ION Educational Gaming System made by Playskool. It puts the child on the TV screen and they have to use their arms to play the games. I think it is designed for kids aged 4 to maybe 8. Also you can buy different games for it (it came with two). It is like the Playstation eyetoy but not nearly as expensive at only about $45 to $50. I just had to share since it would help other kids like my son who need to stretch the arm in order to not loose function gained. The best part is he doesn't even realize he is doing therapy. A even bigger bonus is that I get to watch him in amazement at how far he has come since his birth with no movement at all! He is so cute because he works so hard at it he gets out of breath.
