Hi Gil! I really like your presentation! We've had that ice try at home but never really used it.
Honestly, that device can be used for all age levels. I, myself am looking for one like that. If you know where I can get one, please let me know.

Hey Gil,
Sorry, I really thought I commented on your presentation. For a low tech device, your presentation was really high tech and personalized. Enjoyed it and was very informative. Excellent work!
Gil,
I am presently working with a wonderful student with Multiple Disabilities. However, he has minimum mobility in his right hand. He is able to grasp a thermos and lift it towards his mouth. We are working on reinforcing this skill with extensive excercises to strengthened his grip. Your presentation provides a great resource and concept to design other tools with similar functions.
Maulek Na Checho (Good Job!)
Sorry about the tense of strengthen.
