The Buddy Boat Swing

Take a therapeutic ride in the Buddy Boat. This swing has so many uses it may soon be the most popular swing in the clinic. Clients can use this swing while sitting, prone, or even on their backs, with no fear of falling, encouraging active movement. The large dimensions of the Buddy Boat (22”W x 46”L x 12”D) makes it suitable to hold several toddlers or pre-schoolers simultaneously, encouraging socialization and cooperative play. The working load of 300 lbs makes it possible to hold older children or adults. One end of the Buddy Boat is made of durable clear vinyl, so the children can see out and the therapist can see in. The see-through side can be lowered and stowed, allowing older children to use their hands or feet to obtain some great proprioceptive input. Using positioning aids, such as wedges or cushions makes this a great swing to use with children who have decreased motor control. In addition, the soft fabric makes the Buddy Boat cozy and inviting for even your most tactile defensive clients. Working load: 300 lbs. 72” high.
