I made this mobile for one of my students who has a diagnosis of Cortical Visual Impairment (CVI) and other significant disabilities. Much like the “sensory space” that I posted, the mobile was intended to encourage independent exploration, looking, and reaching out in hopes of one day grabbing. I also wanted my student to have access to it while in his wheelchair or while laying on the therapy table.
