Material Detail

Children develop faster during their first five years than at any other stage in their life. During this early period, children who are blind or have vision problems need extra help learning how to rely on their other senses—hearing, touch, smell, and taste—to explore, learn, and interact with the world around them.This book is an essential resource for parents, caregivers, teachers, health/rehabilitation workers, and others helping children with vision problems develop their full range of abilities.Using drawings and diagrams for easy understanding, Helping Children Who Are Blind provides information on assessing how much a child can see; preventing blindness; helping a child move around safely; preparing for childcare and school; supporting parents of blind children; and teaching common activities like eating, dressing, and keeping clean.
