Mother creates customes for her son's wheelchair

Shared by Patricia Pereira on 2015-02-18 13:27

About the solution

From superman to Mario Kart, Caleb has won incredible fantasies and today he and his mother inspire various other mothers and children in wheelchair to do the same, through the blog Wheelchair Costumes.

“I know they look elaborate but, honestly, my only tools are a hot glue gun and some cardboard. Anyone can do it and many do. I see more and more wheelchair costumes every single year", the mother explained.

About the author

Caleb McLelland, from USA, was diagnosed with Spina bifida when he was 18 weeks of age. The boy cannot walk, hence he is using a wheelchair. When the boy was three years old, Cassie, the mother, showed creativity and ability to incorporate the wheelchair fantasies, allowing him to have fun and get some goodies on the Halloween.
