[nobe-l] childcare and supervision of kids

[Kayla James]

There was one lady that I know who is totally planned and runs, where he used to run, her own home daycare. I was interested in that and found her article in future reflections. I can try and send you the link if I can find it. Sorry for the typos.

The activities in the childcare room include, legos, puzzles, coloring books, small games such as a circle game, some outside activities, and arts and crafts. Other than supervising the kids coloring or a paint craft activity, I think I can be involved. I have tunnel vision and cannot see what they are drawing or coloring. So, perhaps, another staff member can do this part.
