[blparent] Helping child with letters when blind

[Jo Elizabeth Pinto]

There's also a set you can get that has a module you put the letters in, and 
the module sings a little song about each letter and the sound it makes. 
It's well worth the money.  I think I got mine as a gift, but I've seen it 
on Amazon, along with a more advanced one that has lowercase letters and 
asks a child to spell simple words like cat and box.

Truth is tough. It will not break, like a bubble, at a touch; nay, you may 
kick it about all day like a football, and it will be round and full at 
evening.--Oliver Wendell Holmes, Sr.

Fridge magnetic letters are great. They are tactile and accessible. We
bought a set of wooden ones from Doug and Mellissa through Amazon for
Penny. They were only about six or seven dollars, and Penny loves them.
Of course, you will need to know what the letters feel like to identify
them.

I help my child as well.  I do have someone who helps with tracing
letters
since I have no clue how if some one knows how I can do this as a blind
person let me know.
