Children were observed finishing snack, playing with toys, working on a Holiday art project, and playing with playdough. Interactions between the children and staff were positive. The site was clean, organized and contained an abundant supply of developmentally appropriate materials. A selection of staff and children records, the physical space, evacuation drills, emergency preparedness plan and attendance records were reviewed.
