I think i can help.
I’m 15, and volunteer at a nursing home in my free time.
One of the residents there is exactly like her.
I suggest just buying some art supplies (i.e. Crayons, Markers, Sketch Pad, watercolors) and send it through the mail or by UPS. That way, you can get the best deal possible, and pick out exactly what you send her.
Hope this helps!
Marketing Tips
I shop locally and online at Michael’s – - never had any problems getting things shipped. Their phone support is very helpful. They also have online coupons.
They have all kinds of kits where you get everything you need to make something. If you don’t want to go the route of a prefab kit, just be sure anything she might need you include – don’t expect her to have scissors if she will need to cut or glue is she needs to glue. Also think about some kind of container to keep everything you send in.
Create a video blog…instantly.
Dickblick.com is my favorite online art supply store. They do sell to many schools and therefore have some supplies for the disabled. If she has trouble holding scissors or paint brushes they have some that are adapted. If you just need standard art supplies they have one of the best selections and prices.
