What it is
Summary
AI-generated from vendor-published content · May 23, 2026
This is the large-print Teacher's Guidebook component from APH's Tactile Treasures Kit (Tactile-Color Edition), sold as a standalone replacement part for teachers who need a new copy of the guide. The kit itself is an early childhood program designed to help young children who are blind or have low vision develop tactile discrimination, object exploration, and early literacy readiness skills. A teacher or early intervention specialist uses this guidebook to plan and deliver structured activities alongside the tactile materials in the full kit. This is just one piece — it's only useful if you have the rest of the Tactile Treasures Kit (catalog 1-08842-01); buying this alone won't give you a complete program. Worth noting: APH does not keep this item in stock and prints it on demand, so expect a longer lead time than a typical order.
