DIY Walker Tray

This video is to make a tray that fits over the handles of a walker out of the lid of a normal 18 gallon tote. This allows my daughter to be more independent while not being able to walk unassisted. She can take snacks or a meal to the family room if she wants to now and she doesn't have to remember to have a backpack to carry something every time she gets up.

We did make a small modification afterwards. She wanted the tray accessible at any moment while at home but having it on does make it slightly harder for her to walk as she needs to be inside the walker a little more than this allows. So I cut a length of leftover velcro and it hangs from the side with the velcro. I made it long enough that I can flip the tray up onto the walker without having to undo it. She wants to take it off before going out in public so this makes that simple.
