Good News Friday!

Today I’d like to congratulate Stephanie Tilley, who works in Imagine!’s Out & About department. Stephanie recently had her first book published: 101 Adapted Games for Kids.

101 Adapted Games for Kids takes mostly well-known games for children and shows some basic adaptations to make the games more inclusive. The adaptations are applicable for any ability level, and the book is useful whether you serve kids with disabilities exclusively, hope to include kids with disabilities in your program, or serve the typical camper. Each game includes a general overview and description of how to play, as well as specific adaptation suggestions for participants with sensory, physical, visual, auditory, verbal, or cognitive challenges.

In this book, Stephanie has captured the beauty of childhood games and transformed the experience into a passage to lifelong inclusion. The book is a great read for the new practitioner and an awakening for the more experienced.

Way to go, Stephanie! Thanks for being such a great ambassador for Imagine! and the people we serve.
