In their work the authors faced with the need to enhance, modify games to address needs of children with visual impairment. The reason for this are problems with visual function: low visual acuity, violation of oculomotor function: children do not feel the depth, the distance between objects, poorly distinguish colors and contrasts. The authors propose modified versions of games that aim at fostering the development of visual acuity of the child, color vision, light perception, the ability to see with both eyes at the same time, to perceive the object as a single unit (binocular vision); that help to improve sensory experience of children with visual impairments, develop the ability to differentiate, compare, select and call characteristics and properties of the material world; contribute to the accumulation of sensory experience for children with visual impairment, which lays the foundation for the formation of ideas and concepts; develop visual memory and attention.
