Finally, there is playtime, when the children just play with toys and wait for their rides. Many become suddenly fascinated by their shoestrings, or even talk to themselves. Dana has to control these restless bodies during their last hour of napping. While the children are napping, Dana usually does her planning for art time. When the children are done napping, they all need to use the restroom.
Restroom time is an adventure for everyone.
To get to the restrooms, they must first make a journey down the hallway. Dana instructs the children on how to walk in a straight line, and how to wait their turn. After their time in the restroom, the children are individually shown the proper procedure for hand washing. It is important at this age to instill the importance of good hygiene into their minds. After eating, it is time to go outside and get their daily dose of exercise.
