[Nfb-krafters-korner] Braille pictures

[jill]

Hi Paulette,
I have had great luck so far.  My family has been able to see them and make
out my drawings.  Last night I made  a cat's head with a collar and little
heart hanging off it.  Olivia who will be 3 on the 21st, was able to make it
out.  We even used it for a coloring page to do together.  Not sure that she
or I did a great job coloring, but we enjoyed the activity.

Hi all,

 

I absolutely love these braille pictures. But, what is the point of sharing
them with sighted people? They will just say that they are hard to see
because they are the same color as the paper they are on. Also, how can
sighted children draw them if they are hard to see. Sighted people are so,
well, sight dependent, they don't want to do anything else but look at
something.

 

Paulette
