“…15 According to the parents, strategies designed to help affected children function well have proved useful. 36 To begin, though, the child's visual behavior and MRI findings should be explained to parents and caregivers. Helping parents and caregivers cope sympathetically with their child's impairment can change a child's life for the better.…”

Cerebral visual impairment (CVI) comprises visual malfunction due to retro‐chiasmal visual and visual association pathway pathology. This can be isolated or accompany anterior visual pathway dysfunction. It is a major cause of low vision in children in the developed and developing world due to increasing survival in paediatric and neonatal care. CVI can present in many combinations and degrees. There are multiple causes and it is common in children with cerebral palsy. CVI can be identified easily, if a structured approach to history‐taking is employed. This review describes the features of CVI and describes practical management strategies aimed at helping affected children. A literature review was undertaken using ‘Medline’ and ‘Pubmed’. Search terms included cerebral visual impairment, cortical visual impairment, dorsal stream dysfunction and visual function in cerebral palsy.

“…Many parents find or work out adapted ways of relating to their children with disabilities. McKillop et al (2006) (and Buchanan (2009) in the next chapter on toddlers) report how parents in their practice settings find or invent toys, objects and activities of interest for their children because conventional toys and activities do not fit with the interest or capacities of the child and the child's need of support in his or her development as an active participant in activities of, for instance, joint attention. Disability or not, parent and children have the same motive of sharing subjective states of mind and interesting aspects of the world.…”

Early childhood education in many countries has been built upon a strong tradition of a materially rich and active play-based pedagogy and environment. Yet what has become visible within the profession, is, essentially a Western view of childhood, preschool education and school education. It is timely that a series of books be published which present a broader view of early childhood education. This series seeks to provide an international perspective on early childhood education. In particular, the books published in this series will:• Examine how learning is organized across a range of cultures, particularly indigenous communities • Make visible a range of ways in which early childhood pedagogy is framed and enacted across countries, including the majority poor countries • Critique how particular forms of knowledge are constructed in curriculum within and across countries • Explore policy imperatives which shape and have shaped how early childhood education is enacted across countries • Examine how early childhood education is researched locally and globally • Examine the theoretical informants driving pedagogy and practice, and seek to fi nd alternative perspectives from those that dominate many Western heritage countries • Critique assessment practices and consider a broader set of ways of measuring children's learning • Examine concept formation from within the context of country-specifi c pedagogy and learning outcomesThe series covers theoretical works, evidence-based pedagogical research, and international research studies. The series also covers a broad range of countries, including majority poor countries. Classical areas of interest, such as play, the images of childhood, and family studies, will also be examined. However, the focus is critical and international (not Western-centric).More information about this series at
