Description of game development

Researching and developing new and interesting games to aid occupational therapists to help learning developments and skills of children who have learning and developmental difficulties.

An example of a game would be a development on the ‘memory game’. Creating tactile memory games for children with visual impairment would develop the awareness of touch and feel, also enabling the child to remember the different tactile surfaces and where they are in the spaces around them.
