[blparent] being active with your child

[Veronica Smith]

I have always done physical things with Gab.  I go to the park and I throw
the Frisbee and she runs after it.  though, she cannot throw it back to me
and expect me to catch it, I do listen carefully and try to find it when it
lands.  I didn't know theyre was a beeping one.  Gotta look into that.
I have a jingle soccer ball and it is just okay.  It does jingle while
rolling, but when it stops, silence.
I like to throw baskets with the basket ball and wonder if I can use my
jingle soccer balls for that.  But I believe on the directions, it warned
against doing just that.
We climb on the play equipments and swing together.  I have been known to
hit softballs, sometimes to the catchers, sometimes behind me.  But the
thing that always counts is we always have loads of fun.

 Hi Lisa,
someone has probably asked this and if you think it is too involved, you can
email me off list.
I think that it is easier for us blind parents to enjoy the "less active"
playtime with our children.
I mean, we are good with memory games, technology, letters, reading
together, etc.
But, sometimes, the more physical activities can be challenging.
I do plan to get a few balls with bells in them and beeping balls and that
beeping frizby.
We willl have a fenced in yard and I can see some real possibilities.
Can you tell me more about the way you bike with your child?
Thanks.
