Know

High-quality, supportive early-learning environments include responsive routines that support infant and toddler development, including physical growth and development. These consistent routines should offer emotional security, which in turn helps infants and toddlers feel safe to explore and learn. By participating in everyday routines, infants and toddlers learn about the world around them and receive messages from people and the environment about what is important and of what they are capable. These experiences provide opportunities to grow and develop.

Supporting Physical Development During Daily Routines

在婴儿和幼儿学习环境课程中，您了解了在整个例程中支持yabo电子游艺婴儿和幼儿开发的日常生活和方式的重要性。本课程将专注于在特定日常惯例期间支持物理开发。您还了解了帮助您创建响应例程的关键护理策略。yabo电子游艺从家庭和观察中学习仍然是两个重要的战略，即在日常惯例期间支持婴儿和幼儿的物理开发时将继续使用。

Ongoing observation is an important part of your role as a caregiver and it is an essential piece to the daily care and learning experiences you offer infants and toddlers. As you watch children and what they do and say, you are able to learn more about their strengths and needs, which provides you with information to help develop responsive routines.

Routines such as feeding and eating, diapering and toileting, and sleeping or resting provide multiple opportunities to support infant and toddler physical growth and development. For example, you may help toddlers climb up steps attached to the diaper changing table to provide gross-motor skill development. The table below offers examples of interactions and approaches to each moment with an infant or toddler in an effort to help build fine- and gross-motor skills and sensory experiences.

支持通过个人身体发育ized and Responsive Routines

Each infant and toddler approaches the world in his or her own way. Several things contribute to this approach, such as temperament, family culture, and experiences. In an effort to support each infant’s and toddler’s development and learning, you should provide individualized, responsive routines. Observe and reflect on what infants and toddlers are experiencing, and then think about additional ways to support them through your relationship, the environment, activities, and other experiences in an effort to help each individual child feel confident and successful in his or her growing skills.

Routines are a significant part of development and learning for infants and toddlers. Therefore, it is important to work with the infant’s or toddler’s family to ensure that routines are supportive of and based on the child’s strengths, needs and learning interests, while also complimenting the family’s values, beliefs and goals. This collaborative approach can help support all of the infants and toddlers in your care. Individualized approaches to routines include:

• yabo电子游艺基于家庭的文化偏好和与喂食，尿布和厕所的实践学习和实施例程，以及睡觉和休息
• 为例程创建单个计划
• Understanding the infant’s or toddler’s temperament style (e.g., sensitivity to touch, such as when using a wet wipe)
• Adjusting your pace for routines to match the pace and rhythm of the infant or toddler
• Provide plenty of time for infants and toddlers to practice their skills while eating, drinking, toileting, washing and dressing

Below are examples of what an individualized approach may look like during a care routine:

Caregiver, Ms. Raquel, learned from Rebecca’s family that they give her items to hold and manipulate during diapering routines. Rebecca is 4-months-old, and Ms. Raquel has noticed that she struggles holding onto different manipulatives as they appear to be too heavy for her. Ms. Raquel found lighter and thicker manipulatives, thinking these might be easier for her to explore. Ms. Raquel offered Rebecca a rattle made from soft fabric during a diapering routine. Ms. Raquel noticed she was able to grasp and hold onto this rattle. At the end of the day, Ms. Raquel shared this observation and information with Rebecca’s family.

格雷戈里和查理的家人先生已经注意到查理，26个月大的人会哭泣并逃跑，而在吃饭前后洗手。格雷戈里先生与家庭共享查理似乎更喜欢液体肥皂，如果他唱着一首描述肥皂和水的体验的歌曲，可以更舒服地参加常规。“首先我们要擦，用肥皂擦，擦......现在我们的手是肥皂和湿滑......所以让我们冲洗他们！”
