(32 Ratings) | Encourage free play between young children through adapted toys |
| Method Description: | In order to allow a 12-month-old girl with severe visual impairment, some of the toys in a nursery group were marked with black-white stripes (by sticking black and white sticky strips). Toys e.g.goblets to build a turret, box with shapes, building bricks. We observed that not only the girl with the visual impairment was exploring in a concentrated way with these materials but that black-white toys also attracted the interest of the other children of the group, so that several young children between 9 and 18 months played and explored toys together with contrasting marks. |
| Inclusion Goal: | The objective is to allow with suitable materials the opportunity to play and freely explore with all the children of the group |
| Challenges: | By adapting the sjouets, it is important to ensure that the materials used are in accordance with safety standards. |
| Success Indicators: | children play in parallel (for the youngsters and infants), but using the same equipment children play together with the same material (for children who have reached this stage of development) |
| Keywords: | adaptation of toys by black and white stripes, ADPATATION for visual impairment |
