Overcoming Obstacles To Play

Imagine a toolbox. 
Inside, tools that only hint at purpose, handles that speak of use.

This website is that toolbox. 
Toys are the levers, fulcrums and pulleys in the great machinery of human development. 

TFH have been making special needs toys since 1983, but we can't instruct you in their use for they are not used, they are played with. Play is the most delightful thing we do. Even music is played.
We don't know how your child will unlock their power, that part is up to them.

When they do come back. Tell us their diagnosis. Tell us what happened. You won't always choose a winner and we can improve our toys. A review, good or bad, with a diagnosis is what keeps this toolbox alive for the next person who finds it.

But sometimes, dear reader, the right toy overcomes an obstacle to play: the furnace at the heart of human development, a force so powerful that it molds us in new forms.

Here we believe in the power of play. Welcome. Have fun.
