The small print
Accessibility at the Lab
every kid and every grown-up should be able to use this place.
Texas Toy Lab wants texastoylab.com to work for everyone, including visitors using screen readers, keyboards, or who prefer things a little quieter. Here is where we stand and what we promise.

What we have built in
- Calm mode: a switch in the footer of every page pauses every animation, for anyone who finds motion distracting. Your choice is remembered.
- Reduced motion respected: if your device asks for less motion, our animations stand still automatically.
- Contrast and text: we check color contrast against WCAG guidance and keep text real text, not pictures of text.
- Keyboard and screen readers: interactive things are focusable, images carry descriptions, forms have labels, and our drawings include spoken descriptions of what they show.
- Touch targets: buttons are sized for real fingers, including small ones.
- The Imaginator: typing works exactly the same as the microphone, so nobody has to speak to use it. If the 3D viewer gives you trouble, tell us and we will describe your toy in words.
Where we are honest about limits
This site is hand-built and heavily illustrated, and we are a kid and his dad, not an accessibility firm. Some decorative scenes are complex, and we may miss things. We aim for WCAG 2.1 AA as our guide and fix reported problems fast.
