Abstract
Participation in play often requires staying in a comfortable and functional position, moving around, manipulating objects, communicating, or using a computer or tablet. This chapter briefly refers to technologies that may reduce the gap between the requirements of the play and the children’s abilities by providing support in the above general-purpose functional areas or by adapting the activity. Adapted toys and games are discussed in Chapter 7 and accessible digital games in Chapter 8.
