Product Description

Note: Not available with Quota funds.

The VIPS Video Library from Visually Impaired Preschool Services is a series of essential videos on DVD for parents of young children who are visually impaired. These videos offer practical and proven techniques that foster the development of children who are visually impaired and blind. Geared to parents and educators, these videos offer critical insights and strategies to help a child achieve independence. All videos are approximately 12 minutes in length.

Two very important skills needed for a child who is visually impaired to function independently are orientation and mobility – knowing where he or she wants to go and how to get there. This video teaches parents about these skills and what they can do from the time their child is very young to encourage independent and safe movement. Families and their children model a progression of skills from infancy through preschool age.
