New TV - Black and White 5" Screen
A fun way to learn to use a switch!
This unique black and white 5" television is activated by an external switch and features two modes: latched or momentary. In the latched position, you just touch he switch and the TV stays on, touch the switch again and the set turns off. It's that easy! In the momentary position the set stays on as long as the switch is activated and turns off when the switch is released. Ideal for training or biofeedback therapy. The EasyView Television is equipped with a dual power source. It can be plugged into the wall or run on batteries. Accepts 1/8" plugs. (Please note: this set will play like an unadapted set if not switch is connected).

PLAY Tip
Getting Crawling with the Wiggly Giggly!
Use the Wiggly Giggly to encourage a new crawler with special needs to move forward.
Try rolling the Wiggly Giggly back and forth about 6-12 inches farther than the grasp of the child. The bright colours and engaging sounds will tempt the child to get mobile and push the ball for themselves!
The Wiggly Giggly is one of the few balls that actively engage cause and effect beyond the simple rolling motion. Your child won't want to put this one down, But don't worry. The designers cleverly pitched the groan tubes to be engaging without being annoying!
