This report describes an infant day care curriculum which provides guidelines for programs that are involved with very young children. The goal of such programs should be the development of children's self confidence, love of learning, and feelings of importance and success. Activities for infants and toddlers should stimulate intellectual development while simultaneously enhancing children's sense of safety and security. Play is the focal educational experience in the curriculum, with emphasis on action in the physical environment. The report is presented in two parts. The first part concerns areas of learning and appropriate activities. Included are large motor activity areas, with specific suggestions for children ages 1-3, 3-4, 5-6, 6-9, 10-12, and 12-30 months. Activities for language and mathematical skill development for older (18-30 month) infants are also described. Part II concerns caretaking aspects of the program, with suggested procedures for eating, sleeping, diapering and toileting, and laundry. (DP)
