Does anyone have advice on assistive device for a 2 y/o who is blind? He was a micro-preemie with global delays. We have been using a reverse wheeled walker and he can use this with min assist. Cruises around furniture independently and just started standing for a few seconds without support. We are trying to decide whether to get him a walker to use more long term, but don't want to if he will be progressing quickly off it. Does anyone have experience using a cane with this young population?
