yes definitely! am a parent of a blind kid, they imagine things, they can see their dreams, remember blind are gifted people those we cannot see they can see, why through their other senses.
just to share, my son is almost 5 years old now. this morning he is imagining riding on a car and buying some foods at mc donalds how... well he say mama am going out to buy a burger, french fries, coke float and chicken at mcdonalds.... they play what normal kids do and they dream like anyone of us.... you can read too that many blind people are successful in life.. WHY... because of the self confidence and perseverance they have

my son name is Jerald. I know you'll be confuse with the situation but me I have first hand experience from my son and they dream and their imagination is so wide. as I've said we parents of disabled children can make our children ABLE with lots of perseverance and most of all LOVE AND ACCEPTANCE

Good discussion.But it is very difficult to answer the question.We have to share this question with a blind to get the correct answer.

Yes, they can! And they must. I can't imagine what would stop blind people from seeing dreams, unless we limit the idea of 'seeing' to what people with eyes experience. But there are many things such people miss out in life, and blind people may be able to grasp, to experience, all that!

But i m confused,
when we talk about a child who is born blind, who has not seen any images, then how can he create the image ,,,by feeling the objects or something else ??

of course yes! dreams happens because our brain is relaxing, causing it to produce images. we can see it through our mind, not with our eyes. it may like we see it through our eyes, but it's not like that. if it is through our eyes, how can we see our dreams if our eyes are closed? it's because we see with our mind when we dream.

I'm not blind, but I think they can see their dreams because dreams are a product of our imagination. That's why we see things in our dreams even if we are asleep and have our eyes closed. :)

i think dreaming is not about seeing it is about visualizing how much you can visualize.so blind people do see their dreams

when a person sleeps he sleeps with closed eyes . practically speaking , there is no difference between a blind and a normal person when they sleep . they cannot observe anything due to closed eyes however both of them can visualise their dreams as only mind's vision works during sleep.
