That is cool, i have seen pics or vids of parents get creative and design a vehicle to put on wheelchair for them to dress up and feel like that are a certain person or character even if stuck in wheelchair.

Went to look at their website...wow!  What a great group of folk to do this.  The costumes are outstandingly awesome, and the looks on the kid's faces...priceless!
