Bootle Blast, a movement-tracking video game for home-based motor therapy: Understanding the family experience
Bootle Blast is a video game designed for movement and hand-arm skills training. Bootle Blast tracks movements using a camera. Bootle Blast can be set up for different abilities and therapy goals. Kids can play Bootle Blast alongside family and friends if they wish. In this study, we want to find out if Bootle Blast is an easy-to-use, fun, and beneficial activity for home.
Participants will receive a small token of appreciation for their time.
Potential Benefits?
Your participation will help us understand if Bootle Blast is easy for families to set up and if it is fun and beneficial for home use.
Potential Risks?
Your muscles may feel sore after playing the games.
Who can participate? We are looking for kids who:
- Are between 6 and 17 years of age
- Have any motor condition that could be addressed by the Bootle Blast system, regardless of their diagnosis, and are interested in improving these skills
- Live in Canada
- Have a caregiver willing to participate
- No history of uncontrolled epilepsy triggered by screen activities
- Have sufficient vision and hearing to engage in video game play on a TV
- Can answer questions in English about preferences

Time: 1 hour to fill in questionnaires + 1 hour video call with researcher + 10 min/week to record/send activity videos
- Part 2 (8 weeks) “Bootle Blast play”: Set up Bootle Blast in your home, create a play time goal, and play! Time: 1 hour video call for set-up + Bootle Blast play time (set by you)+ 10 min/week to record activity videos+ 1 hour for questionnaires.
- Part 3 (3 weeks) “Follow-up”: Fill out some activity questionnaires. Share your likes and dislikes about Bootle Blast with a researcher. Keep recording and sending your weekly activity video. Time: 1 hour interview+ 1 hour of questionnaires + 10 min/week to record activity videos.
- Part 4 (3 weeks) “Free Play”: Play Bootle Blast as much or as little as you like!
Family Advocates needed: The intersection of race and disability
Apply to become a Family Advocate to help Grandview Kids better understand the experiences of racialized children, youth and caregivers waiting and accessing services.
What question are you trying to answer?
Grandview Kids has partnered with Ontario Tech University to ask an important question: “What questions about race and disability do we need to ask our community to better serve clients and families?”
What is this project about?
This project aims to work with Family Advocates to consult on a survey for all Grandview Kids’ families. The survey will collect information on race, diversity, demographics, and the experience of accessing or waiting to access Grandview Kids programs and services.
Who is leading this project?
This project is being led by representatives from Grandview Kids and Ontario Tech University.
Why are you doing this project?
Grandview Kids strives to ensure every child and youth lives life at their full potential. This means that they receive care that is suited to their needs and wants. We know that across Canada, racialized families and families with children or youth with disabilities experience inequities in accessing healthcare. We do not know what this experience looks like in the Durham Region or for the clients of Grandview Kids.
It is important that we understand the community we serve and have open, honest conversations to improve our programs and services. We will start by learning about the diversity of the community we serve. Before we start this project, we are asking for a group of Family Advocates to advise the research team.
What is a Family Advocate?
At Grandview Kids, Family Advocates are parents, caregivers or youth of Grandview Kids clients or graduates. Family Advocates are paid volunteers who assist in the development, implementation or evaluation of projects. A Family Advocate is invited to participate in a series of activities for the project that has a firm start and end date.
Who can be a Family Advocate?
For this project, we are inviting parents, caregivers and youth who meet the following criteria:
- Currently accessing or are waiting to access Grandview Kids.
- A person who identifies as a visible minority or a member of a racialized group.
- Speaks, writes and reads in English.
- Is able to commit to:
- A two-hour virtual meeting on August 24, 2023 from 7 to 9 p.m.
- One-hour of follow-up work, including reading and emailing the research team.
How do I apply to become a Family Advocate?
- Email research@grandviewkids.ca to receive an application form.
- Submit your application by August 11, 2023.
- Answer a few questions on a virtual meeting the week of August 14 to 18.
We are able to take 12 members on our Family Advocate IDEA Working Group. The project leads will make a selection based on eligibility criteria and ensure diversity in representation of race, age, location, and disability status.
What will I be asked to do?
As a Family Advocate, you will participate in one, two-hour virtual meeting on August 24 from 7 to 9 p.m. Before the meeting, you will receive a meeting package. The package will tell you any important information about how to join the meeting and what to prepare. During the meeting, you’ll be asked to share your opinion. We work in a respectful manner. Our conversations are progressive and everyone will have a chance to speak. After the meeting, you will receive a copy of the survey questions. You will be asked to provide any further feedback by email.
What do I need to participate?
The most important tool you will bring to this project is your personal thoughts and opinions based on your lived experience. The meetings will be facilitated so every Family Advocate has an opportunity to share their opinions and experiences.
You will also need a device such as a computer, tablet or phone to participate in the virtual meeting. This will require you to have steady internet connectivity.
If you are a youth who would like to participate, your parent/caregiver is welcome to participate with you.
Who will know what I said?
The other Family Advocates and the Project Leads will know what you have said; however, the meetings will not be recorded. Instead, Project Leads from Ontario Tech University and Grandview Kids will take notes. Your name and the name of your child/youth will not be included in the notes or our final documentation. Your participation will not impact the programs and services you are waiting to access or accessing at Grandview Kids. Participation is voluntary.
How will the information I shared be used?
This project is step two of a multi-year research study with Ontario Tech University.
| Winter 2023 | Summer 2023 | Fall 2023 | Spring/Summer 2024 |
| Engage with Family Advocates on the design of a Diversity Survey. | Apply to Ontario Tech University Research Ethics Board. | Anticipated** launch of the Diversity Survey to the families of the 26,000 clients accessing or waiting to access Grandview Kids services. | Anticipated** holding a series of focus groups to gather the stories of parents, caregivers and youth experiencing biases and barriers in paediatric rehabilitation. |
*Ontario Tech and Grandview Kids will share findings along the way. Grandview Kids will hold accountability to show how information is used to inform programs and services.
**Ontario Tech and Grandview Kids have applied for a research grant to support this work. The timeline will depend on the outcomes of the grant competition.
How will my participation impact my services at Grandview Kids?
Your participation is voluntary. Your choice to participate and what you share will not impact your service or relationship with Grandview Kids. Ontario Tech University will store all of the information collected, which means Grandview Kids clinicians and physicians will not have access to the data, instead they will only see the de-identified final reports, presentations and publications.
What are the risks?
We anticipate that this project will have few risks; however, you may feel uncomfortable when asked to share your perspective. To help ensure we have a respectful conversation, we will come together to create and agree to “community rules.”
What are the benefits?
To honour our time together, Grandview Kids will provide a $100 honorarium in the form of a gift card, a donation to the Grandview Kids Foundation, or a necessities basket for your family. Further, the information you provide will help us develop a survey that collects meaningful data in a way that empowers people to contribute to the improvement of culturally-safe policies and practices at Grandview Kids.
How will I be recognized for this work?
Only with your permission, we will acknowledge your contribution as a Family Advocate by publishing your name in an “Acknowledgements Section” within reports, presentations and publications about this work.
Who can answer my questions?
Send us an email at research@grandviewkids.ca.

Computer-Based instrument for Low Motor Language Testing, Parent and Caregiver Focus Group
What is the purpose of this study?
The purpose of the focus group is to introduce families to a new accessible language comprehension test for children with CP and complex communication needs and understand the perceived barriers and facilitators to using the test in Canada. The measure is called the Computer-Based Instrument for Low Motor Language Testing (C-BiLLT).
Who can participate?
Parents and caregivers can participate in this focus group if:
- They have a child with CP up to age 18 who have complex communication needs (i.e., limited motor and speech function)
- Live in Canada
- Their child is currently receiving or has received health/rehabilitation services in Canada
What is involved?
If you decide to participate in the virtual focus group, you would be introduced to the C-BiLLT and then you would participate with 4-6 other parents/guardians to answer six questions. Focus groups will be conducted online at times that are convenient for participants and will take approximately two hours to complete. A 10-minute break will be provided halfway through the focus group.
What are the potential benefits to participants?
Parents and caregivers may not receive direct benefit from participating. We hope the information learned from this focus group will help improve access to the C-BiLLT for children in the future, inform training and information sharing for the C-BiLLT in Canada, and will be helpful for other children with CP someday. Participants will be compensated.
What are the potential risks to participants?
The risks involved in participating in this study are minimal.

Discrimination, ableism and racism hurt, but inclusion can heal: Listening to the intersectional lived experiences of youth with disabilities and co-creating solutions [Youth Interview]
What is the purpose of this study?
This study aims to (1) to explore the diverse lived experiences of youth with disabilities and the intersection of disability with race, ethnicity and gender; and (2) to explore the causes and persistence of systemic discrimination, racism and ableism experienced by youth with disabilities.
Who can participate?
You can participate in this study if you are:
- Youth with a disability
- Aged 15-24 years old
- Identify as belonging to a racial, ethnic or gender minority group
- Able to communicate in English or with the help of an interpreter (can be provided by the study upon request)
What is involved?
If you decide to be in the study, you will be asked to take part in a 1-hour interview. The interview will take place over the phone, via zoom or in person (it is your choice).
Participants will receive a $20 gift card (e.g. Tim Hortons) or a letter for volunteer hours.
What are the potential benefits to participants?
Potential benefits may include sharing perspectives on strategies to reduce discrimination and enhance the inclusion of people with disabilities. We hope the information participants share will have a positive impact on attitudes toward people with disabilities. We hope that the information learned from this study can be used in the future to help other people.
What are the potential risks to participants?
The potential risks in this study are minimal. It is possible that some of the questions in the interview may cause feelings of discomfort. During the interview some of the questions we ask of participants may make you feel worried, stressed and/or sad or upset. If this happens, participants may skip questions, take a break or stop answering at any time. This does not include any other parts of the study participants decide to participate in.
If participants’ answers show us that there is a serious risk of harm to themselves or other people, we will have to tell somebody about it. We will do this to protect the participant or another person. If we feel that the participant needs help right away because they took part in this research we will work with trained staff to get the participant the help that you need.

Study participants will attend two research assessments, approximately 1-4 years apart. During the first assessment we will ask you questions about your family and medical history and your child’s experience with CP. We will collect saliva samples from you and your child. We will also ask to review your family’s medical charts and collect any past brain scans your child may have had. During both assessments, your child will be seen by a doctor who will examine his or her movements. Lastly, your child may be given a brief learning assessment during the second assessment.
Who can participate?
Children aged 2-7 years old, who have CP and live in certain regions of Ontario.
Why should you consider participating?
Your participation will enable researchers to study the causes of CP, identify risk factors and develop treatments and interventions to improve outcomes and care for children with CP. You will receive a $20 gift card to Chapters after the completion of each research assessment.
