- Security – responding to expressed needs.
- Love and Care – touching, holding, changing, playing and holding during feeding.
Social Development
- Interaction – helping the children to play parallel with others in a supervised group.
- Behavior skills – children cannot yet mediate themselves, therefore they may need to be redirected during disagreements.
Intellectual Development
- Language - shared conversation with children through all interactions
- Cognitive – demonstrating cause and effect.
- Creative – allowing children to interpret the process so that the product is as individual as the child making it.
