GoBabyGo!
GoBabyGo is a program that seeks to provide a means to play, move, and explore for children who have limited or no independent mobility. The motorized ride-on cars are found at local retailers which are then electrically adapted to be activated using various switches that are accessible to the individual child. With this, we are able to unlock the child’s potential for using simple cause and effect to move their bodies.
Parent Information:
We are planning to host a build day in Fall 2017, Winter/Spring 2018, and Fall 2018. After you have signed your child up, you will be contacted by the GoBabyGo program leaders for the specific date we are able to adapt the ride on toy for your child. Additionally, we will also be reaching out to discuss a general idea of the strengths of your child to determine what would be the best adaptations for your child. We will determine which date based on a first come, first serve basis upon signing up on the website.
