Get to Know: Sproutel
Sproutel makes interactive toys for children with chronic illnesses like type-1 diabetes. The company currently has a toy bear named Jerry for type-1 diabetes patients, and is working on products for children with asthma and obesity. Jerry’s expected release date is Feb/March 2013, and from the looks of it, can not only teach children how to live with diabetes, but can also make them feel normal again.
