The Play of Young Children with Visual Impairments: Characteristics and Interventions.
Rettig, M.
Journal of Visual Impairment & Blindness, v88 n5 p410-20 Sep-Oct 1994

The review notes that the deficits in symbolic play commonly exhibited by these children are related to language deficits and that intervention should focus on enhancing the child's sense of self.
