Come and learn useful strategies to benefit mixed-age children in a group setting
About this Event
Unlike many childcare settings, family childcare homes and some center-based care settings integrate children of different ages. This interaction results in greater opportunities for children to form friendships and relationships than they could have in a group of same-age children. Mixed-age settings provide children with opportunities to observe, emulate and initiate skills and behaviors that can be monitored in a safe and developmentally appropriate manner. Participants will engage in:
- the role of the adult as a careful planner
- theoretical frameworks that support the importance of play
- setting up a safe place for all ages to learn and grow
- strategies to benefit mixed-age children in a group setting
Date And Time: Saturday, April 17, 2021 - 9:00 AM – 12:30 PM
