Toddlers Taught Us Everything We Know About Belt Canes

Safe Toddles Talks Orientation and Mobility

Dr. Grace Ambrose-Zaken, COMS and Kelvin Crosby explore some of the assumptions Safe Toddles made about blind toddler and preschooler reactions to pediatric belt canes before they were created. Lessons learned included toddlers and preschoolers who are blind and mobility visually impaired did not need to be taught to walk wearing them, nor how to hold them- but instead they became the instructors. The children taught us just how valuable acquiring reliable safe mobility was to them and opened new lines of inquiry - like how does a blind toddler learn to stay with the group?
