Download or read book Independence Training for Visually Handicapped Children written by Doris Tooze and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2023-04-21 with total page 148 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: First published in 1981, this book was written to help parents and teachers to participate in child-based mobility programmes, covering the needs of visually-handicapped children from pre-school to adulthood. It gives insight into ways in which these figures can make the world meaningful to young children, as well as making them aware of the special training that is necessary to develop the social skills of daily living that a sighted child acquires through imitation.

It also examines the role of physical education and dance, both of particular importance for the visually-handicapped child at school age.
