You can also go to  
http://www.cenmi.org/Portals/6/Documents/VI/ILS/ILSGuide.doc

This guide provides a very extensive list of skills for pre-school
through end of 12th grade.  I've found it to be very helpful when
working with school-age clients.

There is a fabulous article called, "Hey! What's Cooking? A Kitchen 
Curriculum For The Parents Of Visually Impaired Children," that list 
appropriate daily living chores for children this young. The article is
by 
Franziska Naughton and Sharon Sacks. I recommend the article to all
parents 
and professionals that work with children.

The easiest way I've found to obtain a copy of the article is through
Blind 
Children's Fund. The article is in a packet they sell for $7.00  plus 
shipping and handling (The last time I order the packet was about a year
or 
so ago and the total cost was $11.00.) The packet the articles is in is 
called, "Parent and Teacher Packet 1." The packet contains a lot of
useful 
information for both parents and teachers and they give the purchaser 
written permission to reproduce anything in the packet. Listed below is 
information on how to obtain the packet.

To order the Hey! What's Cooking article:
Blind Children's Fund
201 S. University Street
Mt. Pleasant, MI  48858
(989) 779-9966
www.blindchildrensfund.org

Also, if you have access to AFB's Foundations of Education, Second
Edition, 
Volume 11, Instructional Strategies for Teaching Children and Youths
with 
Visual Impairment, chapter 16 of it might help answer some of your
questions 
as well. This book is the "Big Purple Book" that most TVI programs
require 
their students to buy.

Good luck,
