Thank you for this. I just purchased your April Circle Time and April Farm Unit. I'm a first time Mom, and stay at home mom, to my 15 month old son. Being home is a big transition for me, and I find myself struggling without having some sort of structure to the day. I find myself watching your videos for ideas of how to make the most of my day with him while still making it fun. Thank you!

I do not like multiage. Having one EA, a bathroom down the hall, a changing take even further down the hall and there are non verbal 3 year olds with high achieving 5 year olds. I guess it is all about how much support a teacher has.

I love your videos! It gave me so much ideas, but I have a question, how do you deal with the infants constantly eating the toys especially the activities toys since these toys are kinda small, I’ve had this problem for a while and don’t have a good solution.please, I’m looking forward to hearing your suggestions!

@ClubbhouseKids 2 жыл бұрын

Good question! So, any small items that the children shouldn't have goes up and away and brought down only when I am sitting next to them while they explore the item. Depending on the ages of my group, what goes up out of reach and what stays on tables changes. Another suggestion I have is to let your infants have their paci's while they are exploring an activity. You will be able to catch something going into the mouth quicker this way because the paci will have to drop out first. I also recommend anything that infants can safely put in their mouth, let them! This helps with sensory development. I just clean the activity before another child uses it. Hope this helps!

Hello, my name is Tarusa. I am a home-based daycare owner. I have mostly toddlers and two preschoolers. I would love some ideas on how to get the toddlers in a place where I can teach preschoolers I don’t have a space to block off and the toys that I have on my shelf, it seems like the toddlers are just pulling them down and not really playing with them. Any suggestions?

@ClubbhouseKids 8 ай бұрын

Hey, great question. I have found simplifying the toys on the shelf really helps keep the little ones engaged in playing and makes clean up time not as overwhelming. You can rotate the toys out every week or even once a month.
