This guide explores the contribution of the naturally occurring activities of infants and toddlers to their learning and development. Infants and toddlers benefit greatly when they have a caregiver who is sensitive and responsive to their various needs and interests, who creates developmentally appropriate environments, and who introduces activities that encourage the children to explore freely and be in control of what happens. Ideas and insights for caregivers seeking to provide that kind of support are offered in this guide, along with a listing of developmentally appropriate and inappropriate practices.
