Tom Keller (Concept Designer): It's a perfect example of what we call inclusive play.

Jill Moore (Marketing Specialist): [video: Jill pushes her manual wheelchair on exterior of We-Go-Round with one hand on spinner post to help spin everyone.]
Jill: [video: Jill sits in the interior of the We-Go-Round.] I think it's a very cool inclusive solution to a sensation that's kind of difficult to achieve when you're in a chair.
Jill's voiceover: To be able to engage in this thing quickly, and in so many different ways is a very cool way to approach play.
[video: young boy in power chair grabs onto exterior railing and uses chair speed to spin the We-Go-Round.]
Jill: This piece specifically gives us all kinds of options [video: young boy in motorized chair participates in spinning by using center wheel] to be able to take it on however we choose to.
Jill's voiceover: Being able to socialize during play is very important. [video: shows everyone laughing together around spinner.] Because that's how we're learning from each other, that's how we're playing together.
Young boy in motorized wheelchair: What I like about this is you can be creative with it and imagine things with it.
Young boy 2: You get to spin it around.
Young girl in manual wheelchair: It's really fun.
Young boy 2: [as he spins around in spinner] This is the best thing in my life.
Young boy 3: You get to make new friends. You get to meet new people.
Young girl in manual wheelchair: [sitting in spinner interior as it orbits.] Yeah, it's really fun playing together with someone else.
Matt Tschann (Design Engineer): One of the most important aspects of the We-Go-Round was maintaining a smooth transition from the playground to the deck.
[video: camera angle shifts to show young boy in motorized wheelchair steer his chair onto spinner over a smooth transition point with the floor of the
We-Go-Round being flush with the playground rubber surfacing.]
Matt: So, what we did is actually tied both the deck, and the skirt back to the main post to keep a consistent gap and a smooth rolling surface.
[video: zooms in on additional aspects of smooth transition zone. Young boy pushes young girl in wheelchair smoothly out of the spinner.]
[video: Top down view of We-Go-Round shows dome-like roof and a young girl spinning it from the outside. Scene transitions to group of kids assisting with spinning from interior.]
Randy Watermiller: (Vice President of Product Development) One of the safety features that we incorporated into the We-Go-Round is a resistance mechanism that will control the speed rotation to a fun yet safe speed.
[video: Randy stands outside of spinner and pushes it around. Camera zooms to interior main post attached to roofing as it spins.]
Jill Voiceover: Accessing this piece, the We-Go-Round, is beyond cool because of the solution laid out for how we move around spatially.
[video: showcases Jill pushing onto spinner as well as young boy in motorized chair rolling on as well, navigating to his seat, and moving his chair enough to settle in.]
Jill: This gap, allowing me to slide my chair on pretty easily. [video: Jill enters We-Go-Round with other kids].
Jill: I can spin around here. I can move around in this area freely. [video: shows Jill pushing her wheelchair around interior of We-Go-Round.]
[video: pans out to show overall view of Jill and kids laughing and working together to spin.]
Jill: The We-Go-Round... we're able to sit and we're able to face each other. We're able to engage however we choose to but most importantly we're able to play together.
