Independent Environmental Control: The Grip & Puff Switch Latch and Timer
By: Renata Bursten, Dragonfly Staff
Independently operating a tape deck, television or radio is easier with a Grip & Puff Switch Latch and Timer. Instead of having to hold the switch on to keep the device activated, one squeeze turns it on and the next squeeze turns it of. You can also set a timer so that after a preset time the child has to squeeze again.

PLAY Tip
Pon Pon: Sensory Integration, Balance and Coordination
A great indoor/outdoor toy, especially for children with mild balance and coordination issues or general developmental delays. Start with simply bouncing in place and then work up to real bouncing. The strong kinesthetic stimulation can help some children with autism "click" into attentiveness. Good for indoor winter exercise in cold northern climes.
