A troop of Girl Scouts called the Flying Monkeys did something that proves once again that adults suck, and built a little girl with no fingers a prosthetic hand for free.
No, they didn’t “give” her a hand. She has no fingers. You want to pun on a toddler having no fingers? She’s three. You’re a terrible person.
Anyway, the design itself, helped along by a local occupational therapist and a nearby prosthetics manufacturer, the fake hand was designed to allow the toddler, Danielle, to grip a pencil, thus allowing her to write and draw.
So, to review, a group of preteens calling themselves the Flying Monkeys helped a disabled toddler learn to write. The only way this could get cuter and more heartwarming is if we added some koalas. Well, actually not, because the koala has big sharp claws and will end you, but you get the point.
