The environment includes both soft and hard surfaces for a variety of textures - this is especially important for infants and toddlers. Caregivers recognize children's feelings and encourage children to share their feelings in ways that are appropriate. Caregivers help children solve problems themselves, encouraging them a little bit at a time.
