Children do not need expensive toys. Toys should be appealing to engage the child over a period of time. Information and resources are provided in this report so pediatricians can give parents advice about selecting toys. Children learn from the time they are born, and parents/guardians are primarily responsible for providing quality experiences from which their children learn. Parents often ask their pediatrician for advice about appropriate toys, books, and computer or video games, because they know that these tools may be important in their child’s development.
Other factors to consider are your child’s age, the parts of the toys, and the educational value. When selecting toys for young children, certain guidelines need to be met, so that the child is not at risk for harm in any way and so that they can learn effectively. Young children learn by putting toys in their mouths, so any toys selected for a young child to play with, must not have any small or loose parts as this can lead to choking or death. The toys should also be well made and durable so that parts do not break off. The toys need to be interesting and appealing to a young child.
* This theory is very accurate to everyday life in the nursery. The children are playing and exploring in a room which is set up with the according to the curriculum , they are free to play how they like at their own pace. Teachers should not tell the child how to play. for example, the teacher should not force the child to push a toy car to follow the road pattern. But if the child is using the toy in the wrong way like throwing it, then the teacher can correct him.
I would like to have a physical connection with my baby, and also be there hand and foot when he/she needs me. Based on the baby box, what modifications might you propose for other baby apparatuses—high chairs, playpens, etc.? I would say that since the baby box was somewhat effective, they should try these same effects on the highchair and playpens etc… Being that in the highchair the child usually feds themselves but there is help from the parent. The playpen gives the child play time with themselves and their toy, but still their not cramped in a box bored. Do you think it is ethical to raise a child in a baby box?
The child may have hurt themselves and by communicating with the nursery staff they can get the help that they need. They also need to be able to communicate with you if they are having any trouble at home or even at the nursery with other children or other members of staff, so that you can try your best to help them solve these issues or atleast get them the help and support that they may need. Communication is also very important as it is a form of learning this could be helping the child understand the difference between right and wrong and the helping them gain the educational knowledge that they should be recieving while they are in your care in an nursery. Staff - Staff: Members of staff communicate with each other so that the day to day running of the nursery goes to plan, it is important to talk to each other so that you can pass important imformation about the children to all the staff in the room that need to know ie: if a child is sick and has medicine that they need to be taking or if a child has any dietry requirements etc. They also should inform eachother of any falls or accidents that the child may have had so that if you are on your break or have finished your shift then atleast the handover to the childs parent or gaurdian can be as informed as possible so that anyone in the room can tell parents if their child had a fall and what happened not just say "i do not know i was not there when it happened but i think that they may have fallen etc" this makes the whole room look

Drive Indianapolis, IN 46268 Student Number (22021790) Graded project number (40502600) Health, Safety, and Nutrition for the Young Child, ECE 130 The responsibility of choosing appropriate toys for young children is an important one. I must not only consider the child’s age, but his/her behavior and developmental stage as well. For example, children who still explore objects by mouthing them should not have toys with small parts due to the risk of chocking. There are a great number of toys available for parents and childhood educators to choose from; making the toy selection for young children a major issue for everyone involved in childcare. The following guidelines are presented to help make the process easier.
I also watch for signs of emotional or developmental problems in children and write anything that concerns me about the child/ children, then I bring the issues to the attention of centre's coordinator or supervisor to inform parents/ guardians. I always listen carefully to children and this helps me determine a child's needs and aids in promoting the child's development. Inclusive childcare is very important whether or not children experience disabilities or other special needs. Every single day at the setting, I make sure all children fee a sense of belonging. I let children participate in the same routines and play experiences, this way I learn to recognize children as distinct individuals with special strengths and needs.
Positive Child Guidance “Changes and regressions in behavioural patterns are integral to the learning process in early childhood. It is not enough for adults working with children to be knowledgeable about each child’s learning abilities and progress towards goals. In order to treat every child with respect and dignity, adults must be aware of children’s strengths, understand that they have reasons for their actions, and give each child regular and honest feedback that is positive”. ECE Lead. I always try to adopt positive strategies very sensitively which would bring out the best in a child.
I think it is based off of the upbringing of the child. The toys determine to be appropriate might affect a child’s movement. For instance, a boy who plays with Barbie dolls would attract other female children and start developing female characteristics. Also, playing with Barbie dolls may have the potential to cause that child’s interest to be altered. Clothing plays a major role in your life.
