Toys for visually challenged kids : We always want to give our kids the best. There are kids who have special needs.
There are many kids with conditions that leads to visual impairment, which may or may not be corrected.
However, kids with visual impairment can still learn and develop like other normal kids. And toys play a very important role in their development as with other children.
Kids generally go by the appearance of the toy.
For example a bigger and more colorful toy will attract any child. However kids who are visually challenged may not be able to take advantage of how the toy looks.
Hence we have to try getting toys which stimulates all other senses of the child. Also called as toys with multi sensory appeal.
This is a very important consideration as it helps baby learn by challenging all their senses and not just vision.
Toys with high contrast colors may appeal kids with low vision but may not be helpful with kids with high level of visual impairment.
