Nursery World - RNIB launches new early years resources

A DVD to support parents of blind or partially sighted children has been launched by Scottish sight-loss charities.

The 40-minute film, entitled Let Me Play, has been produced by RNIB Scotland, the Scottish Sensory Centre and the Royal Blind School in Edinburgh.

The DVD was launched at a meeting of the cross-party group on visual impairment in the Scottish Parliament this week.

It will be promoted among specialist teachers across Scotland, who will be encouraged to use it as a training tool to strengthen engagement between home and school.

Let Me Play will also be made available to all families of children aged five and under living with sight loss in Scotland.

The DVD, which was filmed in family homes and at a nursery, includes narration, audio description and sign language, and is available in a variety of languages.
