Plan an experience to help teach empathy. Emphasize to children that each action that they do represents only one of the problems that people with these handicaps have.

• Learn to sign a song or phrase.

• or Blindfold some children and have others act as their guides. You can obtain braille book and have children write alphabet, their initials, or names in braille.

• or Put socks over several children’s hands and have them try to button their shirts or tie their shoes.

• or Simulate dyslexia by trying to write word while looking at reflection of pencil in mirror.
