[blindkid] iTunes/Talking iPod

[Penny McGuire]

As parents of blind children, we are all truly amazed at how our kids figure 
things out.  With that being said, we bought Chandler (10 years old with 
slight CP on the right side) a Nano I Pod for Valentines thniking it would 
be a great way to store all of her audiobooks.  To our surprise, she uses it 
way more for music than stories!!!!  I bet she has over 300 songs on it and 
some how with the clicks she can find EXACTLY what she is looking for 
virtually with NO problems!!!!  Amazing!  She gets mad at her classmates who 
put it on shuffle and so after showing her a time or two, she figured it 
out!!!!!  With all that being said, keep in mind that your child may be fine 
with a regular IPOD if you don't hear what you hope to about the talking 
technology!!
