I COMPLETELY agree. I do not feel it is appropriate to use religion as a teaching tool unless your daycare is specifically advertised as such. I do not run a religious daycare and feel that it is up to parents to approach these values as they see fit.

When I asked the question about guided activities I was referring more to activities that allow for developmental scaffolding with the children to help them progress in developmental domains such as fine-motor, cognitive, verbal etc.
