Gift for 7 year old boy with MS (wheelchair bound)?
Posted on 12/5/15 at 1:36 pm

We adopted a family here at work for Christmas. They have two boys, 7 & 8. The 7 yo is in a wheelchair.
I want to buy the boys a couple presents. Everyone up here says not to get him a normal toy for a 7 yo.
I am thinking of getting the a couple action figures or Hot Wheels and stuff.
Any help on this?

depends really on what you want to spend. I can tell you that what kids want the most these days are video games...

That's a good idea but not sure if he has the dexterity for that

How well can he use his hands? There are a lot of good toys that don't require him to use his legs.

We have never met them but we've seen a picture of him, it looks pretty severe

Maybe some cool headphones?
I think they sometimes have strain on their eyes, and listen to audio whether its audiobooks, or something like dragon that reads to them..
but then I saw you said he's 7.. so Idk.. and idk how much you are willing to spend.

I don't know how this adopt a family program works or what kind of families these are. Is there any way to get into contact with parents or guardians of the boys? A more thoughtful gift would be possible if you are able to get an idea of what their interests are.

That's a good idea. Something the family can do together

MD or MS?
Pediatric MS is extremely rare and they wouldn't be wheelchair bound.
If MD, normal toys (except for a bike) are fine.

Minecraft is still a hit with that age. My 6 year old is nuts over Minecraft Lego's.
