I.
Your
child will have plenty of room to explore and discover at "All
Aboard Choo Choo Train Childcare." My in-home childcare has all 3
levels approved by the fire marshall to meet the needs of the children
in care, where most only have the main level of the home approved. My
home is located in a kid friendly neighborhood on a quiet cul de sac.
The upper level has a playroom and sleeping area. The main level is
where we do our crafts, baking, coloring, ect. The basement has a
play area and open floor plan for larger push and ride on toys as well
as an area for circle time.
Weather permitting we have picnics and snacks in the backyard. Kids
have fun splashing in the water table and love to dig in the sandbox.
There are a quite a few park options near my home or we do something
as simple as walk the dog around the block.
