Folding Activity Arch

The Folding Activity Arch enables parents and carers to attach the child’s own favourite toys, providing visual stimulation which makes it far more engaging than a toy with fixed hanging items. The hanging toys and positions can all be swapped to keep it challenging for the user and the five adjustable velcro straps mean toys can be located at a range of heights – making it ideal for use by children lying on the floor, sitting and even standing. Stretching to reach toys helps to develop muscle tone which is particularly beneficial for children with a range of conditions where ‘hypotonia’, or low muscle tone, is a symptom. This includes Cerebral Palsy, Autism, Developmental Coordination Disorder (DCD) and Dyspraxia. Sources of support for parents, carers and people with cerebral palsy include www.cerebralpalsy.org.uk and www.scope.org.uk/support/families/diagnosis/cerebral-palsy, whilst www.movementmattersuk.org contains a wealth of information about DCD and Dyspraxia.
