Diverse Learning Experiences
"The cure for boredom is curiosity. There is no cure for curiosity" - Dorothy Parker
Playgroup
In October 2017, the Just 4 Tots Playgroup was established. It was initially organised so that the children in my care can engage in a large group setting – which is the one thing missing from Family Day Care. However, it has become more than this. It has become an opportunity for me to network with other educators, my family day care children and I have made new friends, and I have been able to use it as a marketing tool as families that attend have enrolled their children in Just 4 Tots FDC.

Excursions
From time to time, Just 4 Tots FDC heads out on the road for some exploring! The theatre, The Powerhouse Museum, The NSW Rail Museum, Calmsley Hill City Farm, are some of the places we have visited to help us learn new things,understand our world - and of course have a tonne of fun too!

Special Visitors
Of course sometimes, it is easier for the excursion to come to us!
​
Visits from our local fire station, dental nurses, lizard incursions, bee keepers, and fun visits from princesses, elves, and magicians and even Santa help enhance the children's learning and of course create some very special moments to look back on fondly.
