I am a college educated happily married mother of two beautiful daughters, 6 and 4. Both my driving and background records are clean. I am Alt and Pediatric First Aid Certified, Infant/Adult CPR and AED certified as well as a Certified Medical Specialist. Currently I am attending College to get my Associates degree as a Veterinary Technician. I have worked with children for nearly 13 years, volunteered at therapeutic centers, and work as an in home health aid.
My home is COMPLETELY child friendly and non smoking. There are separate areas for play, arts and crafts, outdoor play, eating and napping. Each day we do something new, fun and educational. I have learning tools for children of all ages.
Please see my *Daily Schedule* page above.
The Importance of Outdoor Play!
Toddlers need space and materials that
will help them act out prepositions-over,
under, on top of, inside, outside, behind,
in front of, up, and down.
Also, sometimes simply allowing a child to run and play at will helps them release some pent up frustration they may have. Through experience, I've noticed that the naughtier children simply want to have space and a little freedom. Why not feed that to them in a healthy educational way by taking them outside where they can get education and experience the wonders of nature itself?!
The Importance of doing Crafts with Kids!
There is something in the sense of achievement children get when they are working on crafts or craft activities that involves their creativity and stimulates their imagination. But there is so much more to this picture than a sense of achievement.
The amazing developmental benefits that children can obtain through creative craft ideas make childrens crafts such a crucial part of a child's healthy development.
