Date:27/10/12
Age: 2 years, 10 months
Location: My House
Length: 1 hour and a half
Who was present?: Myself and Ellis

Aims: In this visit I am going to make some small and big chocolate buns with Ellis. I think this will help his physical development, especially his sensory development as well as helping understand that you need patience. I think this will help him understand the difference between big and small buns and I will see if he can tell the difference. I will also look out for when he is giving the buns out to people after we have made them. I will see if he asks if they want a big or small one.
Research: I have chosen to do baking because when I did my first visit Ellis was independent and I would like to see if baking shows this more. He also usually shows things through speech and I would like to see if he would take a different approach when baking. He was a very playful child and I would like to see if he messes around whilst we bake. He usually throws tantrums when he doesn’t get what he wants so I would like to see if I can change this or maybe see if he still does this now he is older. Ellis was very easy to get along with so I chose baking as it involves team work so this might show his easy to get along with side. Also in the first visit I found out that if you asked him not to do something he wouldn’t listen he’d just go ahead and do it. I would like to see if he does this still or maybe see if I can find a way around this. I found out through secondary research that when making a child may start to learn measurements, for example – how much chocolate must go into the buns. I also found that baking can help patience, for example Ellis is impatient so baking will help

    Child Care Observation

    I believe the most challenging aspect about this particular position is investigating a facility due to the allegations reported and properly documenting. When investigating a facility, one must be aware of their surroundings and properly multi-task because an investigation may involve talking to multiple individuals while receiving documents and presenting presenting facts. The main focus is to secure the child in that particular environment, by following all policies and procedures of the agency. This appeal to me because I've had a personal experience of child care negligence. When my daughter was younger she attended at child care facility that I trust and believe would properly care for my child. One day, I stopped by to check on her…

    The three year olds gross motor skills, which are related to active play, consisted of throwing a large ball and running at a long distance to catch it, jumping up and down, climbing up the slide and jungle gym with ease and quickly. There was constant movement with the child in all the 45 minutes that I observed her and her level of activity was very high. It was hard to catch her at moment of stillness, and even then he would be fidgeting under the table or in her seat. Her fine motor skill included, using crayons and coloring a picture, and even though most of it was scribbles(which at this age they tend to do), she was able to remain inside the coloring picture outline. At many points through the day, I caught her zipping up and down her…
