Abstract

The article deals with the peculiarities of psychological and pedagogical assessment of the communicative development of blind children aged from 3 months to 3 years. The complex process of mental development in early childhood depends significantly on living conditions and educational influences. Deep visual impairments at an early age affect the child's activity at both biological and mental and social levels. The social development of a child depends on its place in the system of social relations, on the objective conditions that determine the nature of its behavior and personality development. Dependence of an infant on an adult leads to the fact that the child's attitude to reality and to oneself is mediated by relationships with a close adult. That is, the attitude of the baby to reality from the very beginning is social, public. The systematic assessment of the development of a blind child is one of the important tasks of early intervention, as a plan for the assistance program is developed based on this assessment. When assessing the level of development of a child with visual impairment at the age of 3 months, it is necessary to rely on the supervision of both specialists and parents.
