Children need the LOVE of parents, family and caregivers, which is the first and most important condition for healthy, happy all around development and a good self-esteem. Demonstrative love, in the form of lots of positive feedback, praise and a hug is essential.

A good quality routine is important so that they feel secure and know what is expected of them. A good routine should include nutritious meals and snacks, rest and sleep periods, outdoor play or walks, indoor play with a variety of stimulating materials, good physical care, training in personal hygiene, e.g. Toilet training, washing of hands before meals, etc… and opportunities for becoming increasingly independent and self-reliant.

Companionship of their own peers is important, especially after the first 2 years when social development is beginning, along with consistent discipline. Stimulating surroundings, toys, books, music and outings all contribute to their intellectual development.
