These needs are based on each child's stage of growth and development. Remember that two children of the same age can be similar in some ways but different in other ways. Try to understand the unique aspects of each child. This helps children feel good about themselves. This will also help you plan activities that are developmentally appropriate for each child.
Appropriate activities help children learn and are lots of fun.
Most children need consistency in their schedules. Planned routines tend to work best. Try to develop a routine so that children in your day care program know what to expect each day. Take them outside on nice days. Explain what you are doing throughout the day when you change or feed them.
