Today I am going to focus on SIGHT I am going to stay basic for now. I will talk about what each sense is used for, how it works and why it is needed.
SIGHT-
Why do we need it?
Sight is used to see all the beautiful things that there are in the world. Sight is necessary to be able to know your surroundings and the world around you.
How does it work?
You see with your eyes. It is your brains ability to recognize electromagnetic waves within visible sight. This information is most likely too advanced for your young child, so for now, you can just keep it simple by explaining to your child that you see with your eyes. You can also mention that every person's eyes look different (different colors, shapes etc.) however, they all serve the same purpose, and that is seeing.
Another thing that you can speak with your child about it is problems with sight. Many young children need glasses, so mentioning to your child that since everyone's eyes are different, the way that we see if different as well. This could help them understand that wearing glasses doesn't make you weird, it is just your eye's way of seeing properly.
Other things that you could speak with your child about are blindness, and color blindness.
Here is a list of some things that we use our sense of sight for:
- To see the white board at school
- To watch fireworks on the Fourth of July
- To read a book
- To watch a movie
- To look at art in a museum
- To watch where you are walking so that you don't fall and get hurt
Here are some links that you can use with your children that relate to sight and your eyes!
