MonkeyBug Dayhome Exceptional Home Based Child Care for your little monkeys and bugs. Your little one's home away from home. We do crafts, learning, outside, & fun!

I believe children learn through playing, observing, exploring and experimenting. My goal is to meet each child’s social, emotional, intellectual and physical needs. At MonkeyBug Dayhome, the children will take part in various activities such free play time, crafts, songs, games, stories, baking, outdoor time and fun. Reading is very important and the children will always have plenty of books to look at and listen to.

My 9 year old lead this craft with my dayhome kids. Simple and rather adorable Leaf Gnomes! 🍂
I love when she discovers a craft and wants to share it with the little ones.
🍁 You lead and I’ll follow! 🍁

As a dayhome provider for many years, this is soooo true!
Some kids are ready way earlier than others, but they will all eventually learn it! They focus on different things at different times. 🎯

It can be hard not to compare to their peers, but try not to. Kids are learning at an incredible pace and if you follow their lead and their pace it is so much more rewarding. They learn and RETAIN what they are passionate about! Ask any child about their interests and they can tell you everything they know about it! Foster that love!! It’s amazing!

We have been talking about how beautiful and colourful the sunrises 🌅 have been lately. So many colours and running through the spectrum as the sun comes up. 🌈 Today we tried to recreate the stunning sky with a fun craft that looks amazing in the bright window.

My life is a bit like the book.. If You Give A Mouse A Cookie… 🐭 🍪

We went to a park this morning,
which lead to a talk about the flowers…
🐝 Which lead to a talk about why we shouldn’t pick them all…
🐝 Which lead to us spotting a bumble bee busy at work…
🐝 Which lead us to talking about why bees are important…
🐝 Which lead us to this adorable craft…
