The kids has issues with knowing where in the table they were at any given time. One suggestion was labeling for the cells if possible so that it would read something such as "Row (blank) Column (blank) (Value)".

I got the cells to be labeled with what row/col number they are. I wasn't able to get the actual names like Jan, Feb, Mar. I'm not sure if it is an improvement but if you guys can test it out and let me know if it is easier or harder

Do you think it would be better for the table to be labeled with its location in the grid, or just have each cell be labeled with the contents in the cell. I can't figure out how to get the aria-label to be the contents, row name, and column name. It may be able to be done but I'm not sure how to do it.
I've commented out the aria-label in the slick.grid.js that does the cells position in the grid. I think its harder to use because the values have to be control + option + shift + down to interact with them.

Ive made a question on stackoverflow about this. I'm not sure if anyone will get back to it but here is the link: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/31923777/making-slick-grid-cells-accessiblity

There might be a better way to do this other than an aria-label so if you have any ideas have at it
