We built a new picnic table this week-end and placed it under the gazebo for picnics and outdoor learning!
Gazebo is painted and ceiling fan and light are installed.
We acquired a small picnic table over the week-end. I painted it and the kids love it!
This week-end we installed rubber tiles in the gazebo to prevent the children from getting splinters from the gazebo floor.
Gazebo is finally finished!!!
My Gazebo is going up pretty quick! My "She Shed"
I purchased a gymnastics wedge mat and a non-skid rug to place below the slide. The children "fly" down the slide and this should help soften the landing!
Sensory tables are ready! We have brown rubber mulch (aka soil for the flowers), sand, and river stones.
Bill and I leveled the ground and packed Limestone screenings. We have placed 1" rubber mats on the screenings for a soft area for our Dino to sit. To the south of the mats we are placing flagstones and eventually going to build a gazebo for additional shade and a picnic area.
My Dino is palletized and ready to be shipped from TX. He should arrive on Thursday, 07/11/2019.
Our Sinclair Aluminum 8 foot Dino is ordered! We are excited. Hopefully we will get him put in place within the next month. We will be bolting him in concrete footings and then placing 1" rubber mats over this for him to set on. The children will be able to climb over and under him. Dino will be a fun addition to our backyard.
Two new sensory tables with lids were ordered today (06/02/2019). We currently have a sand table which is very popular. The two new sensory tables will be filled with brown rubber mulch, pots, shovels and flowers. The children can pretend to plant flowers. The other sensory table will have small rock, slightly bigger than the sand. I have a variety of sand toys the children can use in this table as well.
Coming in 2019 to Western Hills Child Daycare Home..... I am planning to add 2 new sensory tables for the children in addition to our sand table. We are going to place paving stones around our playground. We will to install a fire pit in the corner of the yard. Hopefully the gazebo will be built for the children this year. This will provide additional shade and play area for them. I will post pictures and updates as the improvements are made. **********************************************************************
I believe in order to provide quality care for your children it is important to continue to update my childcare facility. The following improvements will be coming this summer and fall. We are currently taking down my existing playground and re-painting it as well are replacing bolts and wood where necessary to provide a safe environment for my daycare children. I will update this page as the improvements are completed.
************************************************************************ This year for Christmas, I had several clients give me cash. I had the children pick out toys which they would like to have. We chose the Gonge Riverstones. We recently ordered 2 sets of them. I also purchased a new weather radio for my facility. I feel part of maintaining a successful business is continuing to make improvements. I will post pictures once they are received and the children are outside enjoying them. Thank-you!
We are adding an enclosed slide to our existing playground. This will replace the rock wall.
Progress, all new wood had been added to the play area. It has been sanded and stained creating a safe environment for the children. We still need to add the roof and a couple other climbers before it is complete.
