Sarah has had an orthokenetics stander since she was 4  (now 11) It has a
large plexi tray so we have always done art projects, puzzles- that sort of
thing on it-lately it has become a polish station for purple fingernails.
We are currently looking for a stander on wheels like a wheelchair that she
could move around the house in--any suggestions??  Joy
