ABSTRACT:
A light switch extender (10) comprising an elongate actuator (12). An assembly (14) is for vertically mounting the elongate actuator (12) in a sliding manner to a switch plate (16) of a light switch (18) located in a junction box (20) in a wall (22). The elongate actuator (12) engages a lever (24) of the light switch (18) and extends downwardly therefrom. A small child (26) who normally cannot reach the lever (24) of the light switch (18) can now operate the lever (24) of the light switch (18) between an on and off position, by sliding the elongate actuator (12) up and down.
