Daily routines offer opportunities for caring and learning. You will spend a great deal of time in routines with infants and toddlers so it is important to make the moments meaningful.

Take time to think about the infants and toddlers in your care and all you have learned so far throughout this course and this particular lesson. Use your knowledge of infants and toddlers (consider reviewing the Infant and Toddler Physical Development milestones information from Lesson Two) and think about ways you can continue to support their physical growth and development during routines.

See the example below and then complete the sections for each infant and toddler in your care.
