[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The daycare workers should be close by and intervening at this age before it gets to the hitting/biting stage. There should be multiples of toys. Daycare ratios are really too high for the amount of close by supervision a herd of toddlers needs.[/quote] As a teacher, these things are closely monitored but we also try and let kids negotiate for themselves, maybe sit by and help facilitate the language needed. You can't just intervene assuming hitting is about to happen and solve all their problems for them- how can they deal with conflict if they never learn to resolve it?[/quote]
