Infants need to view the world from many angles, and are offered that experience.  This includes crawling, being carried, buggy rides, outdoor play, climbing, and rocking so that various perspectives are gained.  Diaper changing, feeding, and other routines are viewed as vital times for communication, self-discovery, and socializing.  They are encouraged to master feeding themselves despite the messiness that accompanies this activity.  While being supportive of infants in their quest for competence, our teachers look to the parents as the best resource in working with their children.
