“Friends are hard to make when you are not mobile”.

Powered wheelchairs are normally reserved for children older than 3 years old. So Cole Galloway took a trip to a Toy’s R Us and started Go Baby Go! Cole takes basic hardware, ride cars that you can get from a toy store, and puts them together to create customized mobility cars for disabled kids.

The cars also provide custom physical therapy for their little drivers.

Not only does Cole and his team make the cars in his workshop, but he is giving all of the information away for free. Holding workshops, and posting Youtube videos showing how anyone can modify store bought ride cars and turn them into speciality wheelchairs.

Here is Go Baby Go’s website. And below are videos of the kids in action.
