[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]That sounds pretty strange.  I wonder if that policy is due to a miscommunication.  I could easily imagine someone turning "there's no policy on masks outside" into "the policy is no masks outside."

I guess they might be concerned about heat and breathing.  I know I have a hard time breathing if I'm chasing my kids around in a mask (I do have asthma, but I don't think that's contributing much).  And being outside in the heat in a mask is absolute misery.

Still, it doesn't seem like something that should be forbidden.[/quote]

Yeah OP I would clarify what they mean.  At our center the kids usually take them off for outside and I'm fine with that (by choosing to go back to daycare we are accepting a certain level of risk to begin with), but they can leave them on too.  However, if your kid is going to wear a mask outside, you probably would need to bring a fresh one for after that time because it will probably be sweaty and gross.

But if you clarify and still don't like the policy, you're free to find a new daycare. [/quote]

They did clarify that the policy was in fact no masks outside.  [b]We also do send our kids with multiple masks and a strap to keep them on them around their neck.  [/b]Our children wear masks all the time so they are used to them and well versed with them.  We did speak with some senior people there today and were granted an exception for our kids (yay, they are keeping other people's kids safe) and they are going to work on revisiting this an potentially gaining clarification from parents on when they want their kids to wear and not wear their masks.  We have been with this school for over 5 years at this point so we would rather work with them then just peace out.  But obviously I know I'm free to find a new daycare. [/quote]

Where do you get the strap around neck? [/quote]

amazon.  It is basically a sunglass strap.[/quote]

Honestly that sounds dangerous when playground equipment is involved.  Get it snagged on something and yikes.[/quote]

Ever heard of a breakaway lanyard?[/quote]

Oh good.  Not all sunglass straps have that![/quote]
