Carrie-was that Merry Noel? I asked her to contact Stephanie. Thanks for
sharing! Perhaps MNoel doesn't need to now...

I have a Braille Candyland game that my daughter's first TVI made for her.
She still likes to play with it.  It may take a while to adapt it but well
worth it.  What she did was Brailled the cards, for example, P for Pink, G
for Green and then she put the same letter on the actual board.  She put
wiki sticks (or you could use puff paint) to show which direction you should
be going.  This is a classic game and I'm sure your daughter will love it.
Good Luck!

My daughter has been asking/begging me to adapt the Candyland board game
for her.  Any suggestions on how to do so? Or does anyone have a game
that has already been adapted that their child has outgrown?
Thank you.
Stephanie
