Play materials that promote stacking (blocks), building (interlocking parts), art creation (paints, papers, scissors, etc.), fine and gross motor skills (play-doh; a soft mat for jumping), problem solving (puzzles), and dramatic play (dress up, pretend food, toy tools) are all necessary. Plastic indoor play structures can be helpful, as well as child sized furniture. Children should be able to do some activities that are child-led and some that are staff-lead. Exercise such as stretches, dancing, and running games are all important. In an outdoor environment, safe, plastic gardening tools, plenty of space to run, and play equipment such as swings and slides that is not too large for the given age should be provided. An area of shade may also be good for the summer months.
