    Child of a daycare provider...lol

    Just had to share this...my daughter who just turned 2 came up to me yesterday evening with a puffy sticker she had found on the floor and said "Look, look!" all aggitated...and I was like "yeah, it's a frog sticker"...to which she said "no, it's a choking hazard!" hahahahah! Okay, so you know your child is growing up in a daycare when they say things like this! (And yes, my kids have all been early talkers with big vocabularies...lol) Any other stories to share from those of us who have our own kids and run a daycare?

    Too funny! mine are alot older and its more of a "why do you have to have all these kids in the house every day?" or "Mom, ___________ just pooped in my room, thanks alot!!!" Everything that goes wrong that has to do with daycare kids is MY FAULT! Just wait til your kids get older. so much fun. Little do they know, if I dodnt do this, THEY would be in daycare and someone elses kid would be complaining about them.

    haha this just reminded me of my son with his younger sister. We often play with beads and stickers at craft time and I always say, we need to pick up our pieces because Emma can choke. (shes 9 mos, all the dcks are 2.5 and up). So the other day my son, who is potty training, had an accident (a poop) on the floor in the bathroom. I said to him, "we need to clean up the poop". He says "cause emma can choke, right?" ugggg GAGGGG!!! yes, I suppose thats also true!! barf!

    This is such a hard concept for young children to get sometimes ... accepting that he should be 'grateful' to be sharing you because if he was not he would be the 1 of 5 daycare kids who was vying for the providers attention because mama would likely have to be working outside the home instead
    Children construct their own intelligence. The adult must provide activities and context, but most of all must be able to listen. Children need proof that adults believe in them. Their three great desires are to be listened to, to understand, and to demonstrate that they are exactly what we expect."

A few tips...

Always ensure that your child receives quality care by taking the time to investigate the provider and by asking for references! We simply cannot verify the claims of every daycare provider.
