[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I would probably try to do it if it’s something all the kids will have displayed. You don’t want your kid to be the only one without her family on the wall or missing show and tell or whatever toddlers call it. Having said that, I would also talk to the teachers or owner of the daycare about them not assigning busywork to working parents..[/quote]

A child care program should not be giving out homework, especially not to a child so young.  I think I'd ask what this is for.  It could be that its supposed to be a family engagement thing, and/or will be displayed as a "my family" display somewhere.  If it is intended as a "this is my family" thing that the kids will keep referring to, then it's worth doing.  But you could literally draw stick figure of you, child, anyone else in family, label each person, and be done.

For an older kid, this could be a fun craft project.  But for a 15 month old, not realistic.  And totally fair that many families, like yours, have no time to work on this kind of thing. [/quote]
