[blparent] Blind babies and mobiles

[Veronica Smith]

I was thinking the same thing.  Mobiles aren't only about what they see, but
what they hear and experience.

Sure, why not? If they play music, a blind baby could still enjoy the
sounds. And if the whirring sound of the mechanics were loud enough, it may
help the baby sleep.

Now I'm wondering if babies who are blind get mobiles??
Anybody know?
I remember my daughter being very frustrated when her mobile would run down
after a few minutes because she was looking at it.
