Creating the Child Care Environment

It has been said that the careful arrangement of the environment is like having another adult to help you with the children. Good environments encourage positive behavior. We are all affected by our environment. Think about how you feel and act in a place that is overcrowded, hot and stuffy, poorly lit and generally disorganized. You probably feel uncomfortable, frustrated and wish you were somewhere else. The same feelings hold true for children. When their environment is over crowded, uncomfortable, hard to maneuver in and restrictive, children become frustrated, upset and likely to act out.
