ABSTRACT
This chapter presents the case study of a Sharon. As the group begins to play a madrigal, ‘Summer is a coming in’, several children, including Sharon leap up and began dancing about. Play involving the senses and movement is an important contributor to development and learning. Something else which needs encouragement is tilting and tipping play. Children enjoy sitting facing the adult on their lap. They can make their own play scenarios once they are experienced in this. Making dens is an excellent kind of play, and is particularly enjoyed from two to seven years of age. Play, whether it is using the senses, sight, sound, touch, smell and taste, or develops a world of pretend, is an important part of a child’s learning. Children with visual impairment should be given opportunities for full learning that involves them in play.
