Children develop faster in the first 5 years of life than any other time, and children who are blind need extra help so they can learn how to use their other senses - hearing, touch, smell and taste - to explore, learn and interact with the world. The simple and engaging activities in this book can help families, health workers, and individuals help a child with vision challenges develop all his or her capabilities. The book covers many topics, including assessing how much a child can see, preventing blindness, helping a child move around safely, details on how to include learning activities in daily work, preparing for child care or school, supporting parents of blind children and teaching common activities like eating, dressing and personal hygiene.
