Thank you for your interest in the Switched Toys Access Program. Our goal is simple: to get adapted toys into the hands of individuals who need them most. Because our toys are modified by volunteers and inventory is limited, this application serves as our waitlist. We review every application, and when an adapted toy becomes available that matches your specific needs, we will reach out to you directly!

We want to ensure these specialized toys reach individuals who truly rely on switch-adapted technology. While we believe all children deserve to play, we kindly ask that you only apply if the child meets the following criteria.

This program is specifically designed for:

• Children with physical mobility limitations who rely on external accessibility switches (such as a Jelly Bean, Buddy Button, or head switch) for play.

This program is NOT intended for:

• Individuals who have the fine motor control to operate standard toys, even if they prefer sensory-friendly options.
• Use in a hospital, therapy, healthcare, or educational setting. This application is strictly for individuals and families. (Institutions are welcome to purchase adapted toys directly through our store.)

"My child has autism. Is this toy right for them?” It depends entirely on their physical mobility! Our toys are specifically rewired for children who experience physical, motor-control limitations that prevent them from operating standard toys. If your child has full physical mobility but benefits from toys for cognitive, behavioral, or sensory support, standard retail toys are the best fit. Our adaptations require specialized physical accessibility hardware to run.
