Self confidence is one characteristic that we hope all of our children have within themselves. During childhood we face enough obstacles to last a lifetime. Why should your child's concerns about their wheelchair be an added obstacle. The "Little Dipper" wheelchair can relieve any concerns your child might have and help them face life's little hurdles.

Lightweight yet durable, adjustable yet compact-these are just a few of the requirements we were handed when we started to design the "Little Dipper" wheelchair. It's sleek design helps the child's peers see the child first and not their wheelchair. The "Little Dipper" is capable of fitting to many seating systems. As with all of the wheelchairs in the Colours by Permobil line, measurements are precise when your child is fitted for the wheelchair. By having a proper fitting ,your child will be set up in a custom wheelchair. You ,however,will not be paying the price of a custom-fitted wheelchair. Colours by Permobil takes pride in making quality custom fitted wheelchairs at a reasonable price.

So your child has decided that they would like to play sports. Yet, you need a specific outside wheel clearance to fit your van lift or doorway. No problem! The "Little Dipper" can be set up with dual rear axle receiver so that your child will be able to use their wheelchair for sports and everyday use.

Also the "Little Dipper" is set up so that,not only can you change it's camber angle, but you can change the total set up of the wheelchair. From adjusting the front and rear seat height to adding or removing armrest, brakes, or push handles, this pediatric wheelchair really meets all of your child's needs.

One of the key features of the "Little Dipper" is it's growth capabilities. Children seem to grow out of everything, including wheelchairs.This growth kit is but one advantage that sets Colours by Permobil apart from other manufacturers.

If you do not have insurance,this feature is a real life saver. In a perfect world, all manufacturers would offer a growth program such as the one developed by Colours by Permobil.
