Choosing Your All Terrain Stroller and Enjoy Outings to the Park
If your child has special needs that include mobility problems or if they just tire out on outings, you need to find a safe mobility stroller designed to accommodate them. Most wheelchairs are large, heavy and not practical for use gravel, grass or trails. With the Axiom All Terrain Strollers, you can enjoy the great outdoors no matter how old the rider is or where you are at.
Available in 3 sizes, the Axiom Stroller is available with a variety of support and positioning options which can be easily added or removed to the seat.

Children with one or more of the diagnoses-Attention Deficit Disorder (ADD), learning disabilities or an autism spectrum disorder frequently struggle to focus and learn. Decreased muscle tone and the constant need for movement sensory input contribute to fidgeting, sliding off chairs and slouching into positions that interfere with writing and other fine-motor activities. Adaptive seating and alternative positioning provide sensory input that may help these students improve attention to tasks. Here are several suggestions you can try in the classroom setting.
Therapy balls come in all different sizes. A therapist or teacher should choose a ball that enables the child to comfortably sit with her feet resting flat on the floor. Hips and knees should be at 90 degree angles-same as during traditional seating. Special holders can be used that stabilize the ball avoiding unwanted play and distraction. The student may then gently bounce in place while seated at a desk-thus receiving the sensory input that promotes focus and improves muscle tone. At the same time the student’s frequent postural adjustments strengthen the core abdominal and trunk muscles. This is important because increasing strength and muscle tone will also promote motor control to use a pencil, scissors and other classroom tools.
