Slant board - adjustable and collapsible

Early on, my daughter's occupational therapist recommended the use of a slant board to help support her wrists. We found this affordable solution that travels easily, as it is collapsible and durable. The one we have adjust with heavy duty velcro for different angles of writing. When collapsed, this is incredbily thin, though not entirely light weight. It can travel in a bag for school use, though we opted to keep binders as makeshift slant boards in each classroom. For home use, though, this is a nice option that can travel all over the house for the kid who loves to write and draw. Some schools will purchase items like this for the students to use, if the OT through the school system advises it, so it is worth looking into if your OT recommends a drafting desk or slant board to support the hands and wrists. We purchased ours online, here.
In addition to the slant board, her Genetic Doctor recommend Y shaped pens and other support options. I will add a listing soon.
