Alternative/Accessible Remote?

Can a non-Roku remote be used for Roku? My son is disabled and he likes watching TV but I'm wondering if I can get him a bigger button remote to use instead of the Roku Remote we have...

Roku needs to develop a larger remote with larger buttons for senior citizens and folks with limited dexterity. Ever heard of the the ADA?

    I think companies are afraid that having accessibility would make their product less appealing. lol
    Feel like 100 years ago when families used to hide people with disabilities.
