During a first-of-its-kind Go Baby Go event at Bowling Green, students in the Doctor of Occupational Therapy program customized battery-powered vehicles for children living with disabilities. With sponsorship from the @abilitycntr of Greater Toledo, seven children were sent home with vehicles modified for their unique needs and abilities at no cost.

Halloween is fun, but it can also feel overwhelming. Remember these tips to keep the day safe and enjoyable:
• Practice wearing costumes

• Bring a sensory toy or headphones
• Head out early to avoid crowds
• Plan a short, familiar route
