The Lyre of Alpha Chi Omega, Vol. 55, No. 3, March 1952
OPERATION TOY!
The reduced replica of the "A X n Toy Book" that appears on
the March cover should by now be familiar to most Alpha Chis-
at least to actives and to all alumnae who are active in chapters and
clubs. It represents our new national project in connection with
cerebral palsy, and every chapter and club should be equipped
with one of the booklets by this time.
The picture at the top shows a little girl playing with one of the
Applique Dolls, a toy very similar to the one pictured and de-
scribed on page 9 of the Toy Book. By learning to button and un-
button the coat and dress on the board-mounted doll, the palsied
child eventually learns to do the same thing for herself, and also
increases her ability to coordinate her finger and arm movements.
In the lower picture the little girl plays with a Clown Board
exactly like the one shown on page 19 of the Toy Book. To make
the clown blow up his balloon is fun-also it is a good lung exer-
cise!
The pictures were supplied for the LYRE by the National So-
ciety for Crippled Children and Adults which is cooperating with
Alpha Chi on the Toy Project. For the story of our new toy-making
operation, see page 3, this issue.
