IntroductionOur families often ask for activities they can do with their children at home, in between visits with their Early Intervention Teacher of the Visually Impaired (EI-TVI) , as well other providers and therapists. Here are 20 fun ideas developed by our teachers, and they can be enjoyed by the entire family!
The Learning Experiences are guided activities you can do in your home or via telehealth with your EI-TVI, with the intent that you will continue the experience on your own because that’s when the real learning occurs. They are tied to everyday routines like play time, bathing, and feeding because routines help all children feel assured that the world is an orderly place and promote their independence. The experiences also introduce you to the Expanded Core Curriculum (ECC), a set of nine core skills that children who are blind or visually impaired learn when they enter a school-based program. The activities are concrete examples of how ECC concepts can be incorporated into everyday routines in a fun, meaningful way. Get Started! Scan the list of Learning Experiences. Connect with your teacher to discuss your interests. Your teacher can help you choose the best experiences based on the developmental needs of your child and your family’s interests. Then make a date to do the experience with your teacher first, either in your home or via telehealth. If you have any questions or comments about the learning experiences, please contact your EI-TVI. We are always looking for ways we can improve the experiences and welcome your feedback. |
