Audio description is an extremely valuable way for people who are blind or partially sighted to be able to access many TV shows, movies, and other programming. But apart from just pure entertainment, audio description can also offer up some very important lessons and learning moments for children who are blind or partially sighted. This week Shawn and co-host Kolby welcome Maria, who is the parent of a daughter who is blind, to discuss what kind of developmental impact audio description can have  on young children. 

Blind Beginnings’ mission is to inspire children and youth who are blind or partially sighted and their families through diverse programs, experiences, counseling and peer support, and opportunities to create fulfilling lives. Visit us online at www.blindbeginnings.ca to find out more!
