Play is a universal connector: It improves quality of life, connects people emotionally and wards off stress and depression. But for the 5.6 million Americans living with paralysis, these activities are challenging – and that’s where Adaptoys comes in adaptoys.org .

Adaptoys is an innovative line of adapted versions of popular toys that allows people with physical disabilities to experience the joy of actively playing together with their families. These toys use voice activation, motion sensors and sip-and-puff assistive technology to bring the power of play to a new audience.
