![]() ![]() The inherent playfulness that comes with this ball is very motivating to users and encourages playing with others and communication. ![]() Drawing a path in the app is great practice for fine motor skills, and cognitive perceptual skills, such as learning about shapes. You can also order accessories like ramps, and add-ons like this Lego car.įor those that can code, there are a variety of ways to code the SPRK+ from the most simple (drawing a path on the app that the robot will follow) to the hardest (writing actual code). I’ve seen people attach markers to the robot to have it draw, or people that have placed a large plastic cup over it, with a face drawn on it, so it looks like the cup is moving, and other fun ideas. Options are endless…imagination is the key…and the game! For example, you can make a maze and guide the ball through it as you would a remote controlled car.Īnother simple idea would be to place obstacles in its way, like a tower of blocks, and have it knock them over. The SPRK+ is a piece of technology that was developed for the wider population, not specifically for people with disabilities, but because of it’s ease of use and the fact that it is a cool fun toy from the regular market, it can be used with people with disabilities easily and in many ways.
