What will be an ideal response?
-attain gross- and fine-motor milestones many months later than their sighted counterparts because infants with severe visual impairments must rely on sound to identify the whereabouts of objects. But sound does not function as a precise clue to object location until much later than vision—around the middle of the first year
- infants who cannot see have difficulty engaging their caregivers, adults may not provide them with
rich early exposure to sounding objects. As a
result, the baby comes to understand relatively
late that there is a world of interesting objects
to explore
-are not motivated to move independently. Because of their own uncertainty coupled with their parents' protectiveness and restraint to prevent injury, blind infants are typically tentative in their movements. These factors delay motor development further.
