It’s Shrinking!

Develop visual attention as background illumination decreases and objects become smaller.

This activity has been revised and was originally created by Vickie Brennan, Flo Ryu and Dennis Lolli and published in the Perkins Activity and Resource Guide (1st edition, Volume 2, 1992).  The second edition is available for purchase.

Although attention to various light sources is a starting point in the training of visual behaviors, a transition toward attention to objects is critical for the carryover of visual skills to functional activities under normal lighting. This activity works to develop visual attention to objects as background illumination decreases and objects become smaller. Lessons include Orientation & Mobility.
