Finding the right learning toys...

Finding great toys for a blind child is often very frustrating! Most toys have to be adapted and even then there is usually a function or part of the toy that still isn't accessible. I think most parents and shoppers for blind children would love more than anything to be able to go to our local stores (Target, WalMart, Toys R Us *registered/copyrighted trademarks and not endorsed by this blog) and pick/choose from a variety of products and actually find toys, games, books our children would love. Or even online would be nice- without them costing 4x as much at the independent VI online stores. LeapFrog could do so much to encourage literacy in preschool and elementary aged children! Anyone want to sign a petition agreeing with me?
