A toy for children of all abilities, WheelyRider spreads joy on the playground and develops children’s coordination and cognitive skills while promoting the inclusion of children with disabilities.

The jury says
WheelyRider is easy to love, because it reminds us of the excitement of racing one’s best friend in the playground. The red-orange playground wheelchair is designed with a number of built-in challenges aimed at developing the users’ coordination, motor skills and strength. It also promotes inclusion, as anyone can use the chair, making it easy for children with and without disabilities to play together. An unconventional design solution that removes the focus from the physical impairment to one thing that all children have in common: the enjoyment of play and physical activity.
