Welcome to Mothers' Playground
Mothers' Playground is a community of parents and experts helping visually impaired babies reach their full potential. We add humor and fun to everyday educational routines while we stimulate our babies. Sign up for our free newsletter and join us for a laugh every day with your infant.
You've had some tough news about your baby lately and I'm sure your doctor has told you that there is nothing you can do. You will have to "wait and see" how your baby turns out. When your child is verbal at age 3 you'll have a better idea of what your child will need.
We received similar news about "waiting to see" until our children were older. Since a baby's vision is developed at nearly an adult level at 6 months of age, waiting was NOT an option for us.
If your baby has a visual impairment, you have the unique challenge of preparing her for preschool with some formidable disadvantages. However, if you are willing to spend just 15 minutes of your day with Mothers' Playground, you'll be amazed at what your baby gives back to you! Sign up for our free newsletter to get the help your baby needs.
There is no charge for our newsletter and it is packed with simple ways to stimulate your baby. Most of the exercises are not time consuming and they are combined with activities you do every day anyway.
During everyday routines your baby can learn the alphabet, numbers, phonics, colors, math, shapes, visually efficiency and more. You'll be amazed by what a little discipline does for you and your baby.
Many doctors will tell you there is nothing you can do about low vision and to "wait and see." There is no sense of urgency in the medical community. However, much of the infant visual system is mapped before 6 months. It is particulary plastic from 2 to 4 months. Don't miss this short window of opportunity to stimulate your baby now. Work on your baby's development now. The 'work' is fun and we know you'll have a laugh over some of these exercises! Sign up for our free newsletter and you will get ideas every weekday.
We all have questions about raising our children. If you care about answering those questions and if you have some ideas for us, we hope you'll join us at Mothers' Playground.
If you're not a "wait and see" person, Let's discover what our babies can do together, sign up for our free e-mail newsletter now. You're going to be so proud the day you send your baby off to preschool!
