July celebrations start with Independence Day—“the 4th of July”. It is a day to celebrate freedom, the birth of American independence, with festivities including parades, picnics and fireworks. Freedom can be defined in many ways but a common statement is made by many students who have completed a vision therapy program. They feel a […]

My, What Big Eyes They Had!
Did Neanderthals become extinct because of the size of their eyes? A new study suggests that could very well be the case. According to the study published in Proceedings of the Royal Society, a Neanderthal’s eyes were approximately 6mm larger than modern day humans. I know this seems like a small amount, but it was […]
Are you looking for some fun visual games this holiday season? Well, look no further. This month I’ll be recommending some great visual perceptual games that help develop basic skills for visual thinking, such as visual memory, sequencing and patterns, form perception, visual discrimination and visual figure ground. Enjoy! Set Game – Ages 6 […]

Vision development in children involves not only the development of good eyesight such as 20/20 vision but also fine motor development, gross motor development, and visual perceptual development. A large part of visual development in children takes place when they are preschoolers, and proper vision development in children closely follows the cognitive stages for […]
Visual development in children is extremely important in producing good gross motor development, fine motor development, and to achieve the proper cognitive stages for child development. Children with poor vision development will often exhibit learning problems when they start grade school and may tend to be clumsy and disorganized. So it’s important to know if […]
Visual development in children is a very important part of child development including fine motor development, gross motor development, and visual perceptual development. Without good vision development in children, many cognitive stages of child development may be delayed and learning problems could occur once the child enters kindergarten and grade school. So why is visual […]
