1. What activities and experiences you and your child have engaged in might be promoting healthy behavioral practices and an interest in physical activity

Sebastian and I have engaged in some activities that might be promoting a healthy behavioral practice and an interest in physical behavior. For example, during the weekends, Sebastian likes to go outside to the back yard to play mini soccer or play with his mini- basketballs. However, he seems to get tired very easily and after a short while he decides to quit the game. We have decided not to force Sebastian into playing any sports because we do not want him to get frustrate at the game or at him. Now, that we have a second child, we tried to activities with both children at the same time,

Also, we wanted Sebastian to have a more individual attention, as he is a slow to warm up baby. Another reason why we chose a home day care center is because we wanted Sebastian to interact with other children around his own age, and because it was the least expensive childcare facility that we could find around the area. The last reason why we enrolled Sebastian in a home daycare center was because my partner had lost his job, and my family was not able to take care of Sebastian. So I force to go back to work, while my partner went out to look for a new …show more content…
Describe one example of what could go wrong, if you could not provide your child with these experiences

An activity that I am engaging in Sebastian to promote a healthy behavioral practice is to teach him how to behave at the dinner table, as there are times where he does not behave. It is important for Sebastian to learn good table manners because other people can form a positive or negative impression when he sits down to eat. Also this has a reflection on the parents, as they are the ones responsible for teaching the child how to behave in different places.

Another activity that I am engaging in Sebastian is to expand on his vocabulary by repeating, paraphrasing and expanding his own sentences. For example, the other day when we went to the park with his sister, Sebastian told me “ mommy Bella cry” and my response was “Sebastian, Bella is crying because she needs her diaper change. Would you like to help me change her diaper?” Expanding Sebastian’s vocabulary is important because, he will be able to express his feelings and needs better. Also, this activity will help him become a much better reader once he starts to go to

    Child-initiated activity hands practitioners a very powerful opportunity for learning. To make the most of this, as a practitioner you must: * maintain children's focus - actively using a range of strategies to keep the children engaged and extend their learning - introducing new words, thinking out loud, introducing more complex speech, bringing in new problems, encouraging conflict negotiation, demonstrating or explaining new ways of working towards a solution * offer assistance and support, when needed, so children are successful in following their ideas, even something simple like holding an object while a child works * ensure the learning environment offers a wide range of stimulating open-ended materials, both outdoors and indoors, for…

    The first observation I did was at the Esmelda daycare, this daycare is a family daycare there the woman and husband showed me what they did every day they said that the toddler had hours for everything like what time they eat, how much time they had to play. Esmelda daycare promote language through play time she has book that help the toddlers learn the different animal or the ABC the woman would read the book to toddler by pointing to animal or letter and saying what it was she would also promote language by playing with the toys like counting how many Lego blocks there is or by saying the color of the toy right now. Esmelda daycare is not fully completed with all the material the toddlers need they are in process, but still not being a fully completed daycare you can see that the women and the husband take really good care of children when I was there as she was taking to me if the children need something she would stop and put attention to what the children need instead of just keep taking to me and ignored the child. Compare to the second observation did where each children age group has his own in Esmelda daycare see has all the children together he also has the toy room apart where they just go play when is play time and can’t go in until is play time again.…

    Conducting outreach through home/placement visits and community agencies to foster engagement, rather than relying solely on referrals from schools or professionals is important when engaging with this population. As foster care youths are often in unstable housing, being flexible and going to where the youth is at rather than waiting for referrals is a more proactive approach. Over the last two decades, the ethnicity of foster children has shifted dramatically. By 2000, minority populations accounted for 70% of California’s foster care cases; a 54% increase from 1983 (Marsenich, 2002). Thus, clinicians need to remain culturally competent when engaging with diverse clients.…
