2996 The <strong>de</strong>velopment of the Toy Library to an Inspiration Room<br />

Anna-Lena, Margareta Raask; Inger Elisabeth Eriksson – Swe<strong>de</strong>n ( anna-lena.raask@orebroll.se )<br />

Toy Library concept, like other un<strong>de</strong>rgoes a continuous transformation<br />

over time both in theory and in practice. We see an opportunity to<br />

spread an i<strong>de</strong>a that is not too costly for families and institutions and<br />

stressing the importance of play and employment, in child and a<strong>do</strong>lescent<br />

<strong>de</strong>velopment. The Inspirations room view can be adapted to all<br />

countries regardless of the economy. UN Children’s Convention states<br />

that all children have a right to play. Play is the key to child <strong>de</strong>velopment.<br />

It is in play the child <strong>de</strong>velops their minds, their motor skills and<br />

ability to interact. Most children play spontaneously. Children with disabilities,<br />

physical or mental, often need the help of adults to play. The<br />

mission of the Habilitation is to support children and families where<br />

the child has a disability. The Inspiration Room is a <strong>de</strong>velopment of the<br />

Toy Library where parents could borrow toys. The goal of the Inspiration<br />

room is an activity that gives inspiration and i<strong>de</strong>as on games for<br />

children and a<strong>do</strong>lescents who have difficulty finding appropriate play<br />

materials and occupation. The toys will be current and available to buy<br />

on the open market. The Inspiration Room has an Open house dayevening<br />

once a month with different themes such as “”math playing””,<br />

“”autism and play””, etc. where we show our material teaching tips,<br />

simple adjustments and pursuits. We offer courses in simple adaptations<br />

of toys and other materials. To the Open house dayevening<br />

comes parents and staff in the child’s network. The Inspiration Room<br />

is also shown at each single visit, for children and young people and<br />

its network. We also receive visits from people interested in creating<br />

a similar business because we were the first in Swe<strong>de</strong>n to change and<br />

<strong>de</strong>velop our Toy Library to an Inspiration room.
