Encouraging new skills in a blind or visually impaired child
A young child sits on the floor holding on to a matRaising a child who is visually impaired or blind raises some interesting questions for parents. How do we get them to crawl? To climb? To feed themselves?

For community help and advice, Wonderbaby.org is a great resource. They post articles to address issues such as crawling and feeding and community members join in with their own advice from personal experiences.

If you’re coming up against areas in child rearing that have you stumped, or if a little bit of support would make your day better, head over to any of their articles.
