SUMMARY:Toy Hack at Vancouver Hack Space
DESCRIPTION:Adapted toys are magic for kids with motor issues. It’s true that the toy creates joy and fun for the child\, but it’s also the first step towards the ability to control their world. Switch activated toys are incredibly powerful for children with physical challenges. However they are very expensive and often out of reach for families with children with disabilities. \nBuilds will go to children in need. \nAre you interested in learning how to hack toys? We invite you join us at Vancouver Hack Space on Feb 13th\, 2019 between 7-10pm. The event does not have a hard start time\, so feel free to come when you are available. \nFREE \nDo you know a child who needs an assistive device? Make a request on makersmakingchange.com \nSee you there and thanks for all your support!
