Glow
An uncluttered visual environment for attention, visual readiness, and sustained looking.
Every child begins somewhere.Let’s help them learn to look.
Simple apps and activities that help learners learn to look, find, follow, and touch using their vision.
Four skills
Where would you like to begin?
Most learners begin with one of four everyday visual skills — looking, finding, following, and touching. Choose the one that sounds most like the learner you have in mind.
LOOK
LOOK
Begin with looking—helping a learner notice, orient toward, and sustain attention to a clear visual target.
- Visual attention
- Fixation
- Response latency
- Preferred color
Explore
FIND
FIND
Move into finding—locating a target, noticing its appearance, and shifting gaze between visual areas.
- Visual search
- Visual field awareness
- Shift of gaze
- Target recognition
Explore
FOLLOW
FOLLOW
Practice following—tracking a moving target across simple, predictable pathways.
- Horizontal tracking
- Vertical tracking
- Diagonal tracking
- Movement anticipation
Explore
TOUCH
TOUCH
Explore touching—connecting looking with intentional interaction through accessible cause and effect.
- Touch awareness
- Reach toward a target
- Cause and effect
- Visual-motor participation

Apps & Activities
Simple visual experiences for purposeful learning.
Learn to Look offers simple, adaptable apps that support visual attention, movement, interaction, and early visual learning. Educators and families can adjust color, movement, complexity, pacing, sound, and touch to meet individual needs.
Many of these apps were originally developed for learners in the early stages of using vision, including many students with Cortical Visual Impairment (CVI). Their simple, adaptable design also makes them useful for a wide range of learners who benefit from reduced visual complexity.
Firefly
A flexible tracking experience using illuminated targets, simple movement, and adjustable visual complexity.
Spark
A responsive cause-and-effect environment where touch creates light, color, and movement.
Track It
Structured visual tracking practice with adjustable targets, paths, pacing, and complexity.
Who it's for

About
Created from experience with real learners
Learn to Look is being developed by a vision teacher who has spent years supporting learners with cortical visual impairment, low vision, and complex needs. It brings together practical teaching experience, accessible design, and a belief that visual learning should begin with the learner.
