Moon for the Blind

myminifactory

Educational tool for blind children and their educators shaped like the moon. Leave space to 3D print or stick braille letters of your language. We've also added just the moon if you want to experiment in other ways with it, or as we suggest gluing it on wood or plexiglass. People who are visually impaired love VI especially when attached to wood. Finally, we've added a hole to tie multiple moons together with a small rope since we have more coming. Visit feelform.eu or facebook.com/feelform3D for more information. Feelform is an initiative supported by the Angelopoulos CGIU. We design and 3D print innovative products for the blind, aiming to end exclusion from public space and provide equal opportunities in education. The moon educational material for the visually impaired. A tactile representation of the moon's phases allows blind children and adults to visualize its shape. To use this tool: Always present it facing forward. Explain that the moon has phases and how it appears during a waning crescent phase. Make sure your student understands the moon is a sphere, and this representation shows what we see when sunlight hits it at an angle. Materials needed: Optional items: If printing only the moon without its base, you may need a small wooden tile or plexiglass tile.
