Note: Review only, product no longer for sale.
Adjustable finger rings with space for weights and a loop for tying
Stainless steel utensils feature lightweight, built-up plastic handles to aid those who have arthritis or a weak grasp. Adjustable rings on the handles give support against individual fingers for maximum comfort and grip, and they are removable. The handles are hollow so that non-toxic weight can be added when necessary (Maddaplas Putty, cat. no. H70935-0003 is recommended). A loop on the handle can be used to tie the handle to the wrist. Dishwasher safe.

PLAY Tip
Talking about hearing impairment
Give more, not different.
If a child has a hearing impairment, we sometimes slip in to an exaggerated communications mode. We must resist! Speak normally, as exaggerated lip movements are difficult to read. Adult's should instead provide visual cues that accompanies normal speech, without distorting the message with uncommon motions.
