>> Story:
>> IDAHO FALLS, Idaho - 
>> Monday in Idaho Falls, a group of visually impaired kids started their
second week of a camp that teaches them life skills - as well as giving them
the opportunity to get to know and bond with other kids who are partially or
fully blind.
>> The National Federation of the Blind hosts a three-week day camp for kids
who are blind, where they learn valuable life skills like how to read and
write in braille, how to get around with a cane, and even how to cook for
themselves.
>> The kids are also able to go on trips specifically tailored to them, the
most recent a trip to King Equestrian Center where they got to ride horses.
>> Teacher Teri Hill said it's great watching all the kids work together.
>> "It's a program run by the blind for the blind, in order to help these
children to have the opportunity to learn some skill sets that they might
not learn, and something that also gives them the social aspect of having
some wonderful role models who have succeed well in life," Hill said.
>> This is the fourth year that the camp has been held, and it will finish
this summer session after this week.
