Children page

[hammer]

Just wanted to say that a webpage that explains for children how they should use their eyes could be interesting. It is not so easy to capture their interest in this aspect. I personally don't know how to teach them really, because they maybe cannot read english very well either or most likely they lack interest, but maybe someone have ideas concerning this. Yet if there was such a page many parents I think would like it and use it.

hammer, Janet Goodrich has a good book on improving children's vision. Also, Esther van der Werf (Vision of Joy) just finish4ed a book on children''s vision which has been edited and should be published soon -- I'll post something here when I hear it's available. Web info without an adult guide to help children improve vision seems daunting: if they're too young they won't be able to read it or only have limited understanding, and even if they're older they won't have a long attention span. Once they're teens this site as it is now would be as helpful as it is to the rest of us.

Personally I'm pretty clueless about working with kids on something like this.
