Based on observation and provider interview, the provider did not provide all required daily age-appropriate activities.

Evidence:
The provider is not providing the children with opportunities for vigorous outdoor play daily. The provider stated she has not been taking the children outside during the day, as the area she typically uses, the backyard of the home, is not available due to the space being utilized for storage.
Plan of Correction: We used to go outside after breakfast and before lunch. I will get the area cleaned up so that we can use it again.
