List techniques that help infants with severe visual impairments become aware of their physical and social surroundings
What will be an ideal response?
-heightened sensory input through combining
sound and touch (holding, touching, or bringing
the baby's hands to the adult's face while talking
or singing)
- engaging in many repetitions, and consistently reinforcing the infant's efforts to make contact.
- Manipulative play with objects that make sounds is also vital.
- rich language stimulation can compensate for visual loss. It gives young children a ready
means of finding out about objects, events,
and behaviors they cannot see. Once language
emerges, many children with limited or no
vision show impressive rebounds. Some acquire
a unique capacity for abstract thinking, and
most master social and practical skills that
enable them to lead productive, independent
lives.
