How often do you send mindees home with craft activities. Both of my parents haven't used a childminder before so I'm not sure what they expect. I have each for 3 days.

Hi Mel Well in the holidays I have older ones so they go home everyother day at least with something but that is because they are all older and tend to do it themselfs. In september I have three 1 year olds so they really will not be going home with things until they get abit older. Parents not expect them to go home everyday with something will mine don't if you only have them 3 days a week then I can't see any problem with them going home with something at least once a week. Alot of mine just go home with drawings and paintings. Last term mine were going home everyday with something but that was only because they were doing drawings. Good luck Lorraine xx

Hi Mel
I do not always send mine with something every week
Yet other times they do
It depends on what we are doing - sometimes their work goes in their folder so does not go home
Sometimes we just do basic drawing
Like I said in a previous post we do not do activities every day
Just go with the flow there is no set rule it is up to you
Angel xx

thanks for the replies - I suppose I am feeling a bit railroaded at the minute as we are being expected to do more and more. I am not a nursery! Its encouraging to know what other childminders are doing!
