Toys that might work: slinky, kaleidoscope, spinning tops, etch-a-sketch, bubble makers, digital camera if it is easy to use and has some type of viewer that can be attached, musical things - especially percussion-type instruments along with some type of music player, there's a bean bag game (first link), sing-along book on CD (second link).

In my area, in Britain, there is a warehouse where mentally challenged people are employed to pack fairtrade goods. There are volunteer supervisors to overlook them. It helps them with a sense of pride in their work. I don't know if you have anything like this in your area. I am from Leeds in England
