Watch me go!!! Blind preschooler uses cane.
Watch as 2 year 4 month old child uses her cane to navigate, probe and learn what is in her world. Toddlers can and should be introduced to canes even before they start walking.
You will see she does not just push a cane. (as my students used to do with the heavier canes with rolling tips, which they tended more to drop or toss as they did not understand the vital information they could provide) The lighter cane enables her to actually probe to touch and identify objects in her environment. For more information on cane usage with preschoolers or if you are interested in becoming an orientation and mobility instructor yourself, contact kwalker@alliedinstructional.com. It is a fun and rewarding career! If you are already an instructor or studying to become one, we hope you will consider becoming part of our Allied Instructional Services Team. www.alliedinstructional.com

Its all ready a rap song, haha!
I'm full of tears of joy god bless these children
This teacher is awesome. She is not sugarcoating the blind kid from anything else. She's making the kid see the difference even in spite of her blindness!
what a sweet Angel God bless little one
she is so attentive at that young tender age and has done it properly... very cute video to watch!
I am twenty-five and many years away from needing a cane (hopefully). The idea always frightens me. But something about watching that little girl go on her way with a smile makes me a bit less afraid of the future. I hope she has an awesome future and never lets anything stop her from achieving her goals!
This is so sweet to watch! She's exploring and discovering the world just like any other child, and she's curious about the world around her. You are a great teacher to her :)
Wonderful teacher, we need more people like her.
what a cute little one. My daughter learnt to walk at this childs age using the tiniest walking sticks her father had made for her to try to help her with disability.
I love seeing how you made using her cane into a game with the little side to side sing song. I work with disabled children and they always seem to enjoy making games and songs out of the tasks they have to do. One little girl used to sing to her feeding tube and count how many vials she took during a feeding :) This little girl is precious and I'm sure will more than over come her difficulties :)
Such a sweetie. Heartwarming video.
She's so cute !
This video had me in tears the whole way through. May God bless this little girl, she is so precious and has touched my heart. Well done to the trainer, I wouldn't know the first thing about being blind, but this video has really shown me the little things we take for granted. She is so cute. I can't believe 7 people would dislike the video. Carry on the great work!
It shouldn't be heartbreaking. I'm totally blind and 13 years old. I don't have to have an aid with me all the time. I just hope this vi department treats the girl right. I've seen vi departments that do not treat th3e kids right at all. I trust that this department treats her right.
I LOVE HER....SMART LITTLE COOKIE
This is great! I have had parents who will not allow their blind children to go outside resulting in very handicapped teenagers. Then I have had parents whose children were not told what they could not do and they have accomplished so much on their own! This baby has a head start! YAY!
omg she's so precious.
What a brave little cutie!!😊 it's so interesting to see how fast as well as afficient we adapt to new or scary situations/tasks. Great video thanks for sharing.
Still love it! 💘 Feeling blessed just seeing it. Gratitude and compassion.
This video had a powerful impression on me too. The love it shows was beautiful and really helped me on a day I was feeling a little down. It is a great reminder of what we should all be focused on. Each other. And of course I cried a little too (tears of gratitude)
... I can stop this sad feeling, bless you little angel ...
That's heartbreaking, precious and inspiring all at the same time.
She is adorable!
SHe is sooo precious. May God bless her always!!!
Omg breaks my heart!! She is so sweet and is doing so good
She's so precious.
Aw baby. I love all of this encouragement. Yay
God bless this angel! Dont ever let anything stop you. Keep inspiring us. Your a role model to many of us at such a young age. Keep it baby girl!
It is a complete privilege watching this. It shows how fully-ables folks take so many things for granted, yet those who are born not so lucky, embrace life with twice the courage. Good job taking such good care of her, she's unbelievably beautiful in every sense of the word.
The lady training her is so amazing, her voice , makes me cry so much,
No words to appreciate the efforts of Mom.
This vid made me cry not for the little girl but for myself for taking things for granted in life and look at this precious angel learning to to use her cane....she is not blind we are.
this child is an angel and a blessing I will keep her in my prayers
This little girl is a testament to the human spirit and all good luck and best wishes to you!
WOW WE COMPLAIN FOR EVERY LIL PAIN THIS IS MAKING ME WANT TO CRY.. GOD BLESS THAT BABY.. AND TAKE CARE OR HER..

What A Amazing mother. To be blessed with a Child that can hear her voice , Walk with her two little feet and be hugged daily with her two hands!
May God bless her. She's a brave little toddler.
God bless this little angel.
most adorable child
What an adorable little bunny. I hope she's doing well.
God bless her, she is a beautiful child.
I commend parents for taking the time to start their visually impaired children off right to get them used to mobility aids and independent travel. Bravo! Plus she's just so cute walking around with her tiny little white cane :)
This is absolutely awe inspiring.
Touched me deeply in my heart .Lovely L'iL girl .Cheers From Boston , Massachusetts .
Such a cute little girl best of luck little one god bless and have an amazing day
Awesome video of an amazing little girl! I'm in O&M and would love to see more videos like these on KZread. Most of the kids I've worked with are some of the most fun and outgoing you'll meet. Thanks for sharing this video!
I am sure no one likes a child not being completely healthy, but a person should enjoy that a child like this has those in her life that will make her little life as enjoyable as possible. She is so adorable.
I had no idea children this young could learn to use a cane! She's a doll. All the best to her.

What a beauty!
She's beautiful. Thanks for sharing this video.
This is so heart breaking, what a darling 😞😿
I know some folks are saying this is sad, but she's happy obviously. It's different, and its a pain in the neck some times, but blindness isn't any big tragedy, and I'm glad that the little girl is learning so early.
I watched the whole video. It was precious :')
she is adorable ! yes ! i knewa lady who was dd me and legally blind and her parents neer taught her cane travel... and she in her 60s could not navigate at all without somebody holdign her and she also startled and would...well... go on herself... because she was neer taught self help skills and to navigate !.. yes blind kids should be introed to the canes and simiar when theyare crawling, and a child that is not walking should be introed to wheelchairs.. ones that are functional and are set up to encourage self propulsion !! way to go lil one !
That is the cutest thing, ever. Once she felt that grass with the came, she was determined to find it with her hands lol
Is the lady a trainer? If so, she's absolutely awesome! I can only begin to imagine what the world feels like for a blind child, even though my boyfriend is blind and I've known him for 11 years now.
