Learning from Lily: Growing up Mobility Visually Impaired

Lily was born in 2012 with optic nerve hypoplasia. She received early rod cane instruction, rectangular cane instruction and lots of love and support from her family. Lily's experiences help us learn three lessons:

1) early motor patterns have long-term impacts;

2) toddler and and preschool cane instruction does not effect independent cane use

in the school age years and

3) toddlers and preschool learners with mobility visual impairment and blindness

need easy to use safe mobility tools to continue to achieve independent gross

motor milestones.
