Certainly researching a great day care center involves looking at the day care center’s reputation, teacher and assistant qualifications, the curriculum, and children to adult ratio. Let’s not stop there however; day care center furniture is just as much a consideration in choosing a great facility as the above mentioned criteria. Day care center furniture in general must be age appropriate, stimulating, and safe.

So, what criteria are used when a day care center chooses its furniture? The first thing that will be examined is the varying ages of the children in care, secondly, the number of children enrolled in the day care center program, thirdly is consideration of the appropriateness of the day care center furniture to the curriculum guided activities, and finally who is in charge of monitoring or inspecting the furniture and how often the activity occurs.

Children come in all shapes and sizes, and so should the day care center furniture. Child developmental guidelines can help ensure that highchairs, playpens, cribs, activity mats, and other day care center furniture will be age appropriate for babies to toddlers. Day care center furniture should stimulate the children. Sleeping and seating furnishings must be in sufficient supply as to accommodate all children attending the day care center.

Day care center furniture designed for babies to toddlers should include such items as, colorful highchairs with built in activity toys, sturdy mesh fabric playpens with removable pads and play yards with large motor skill toys and activities, and brightly colored floor mats with safety mirrors and characters. Subsequently, preschool aged children have different size requirements and require more movable parts such as, gliders, rocking horses, tables and chairs sets, desks, book shelves, toddler cots, and toy boxes.

In addition, all toddler furniture should be accessible, comfortable and functional to include built in activities that stimulate curiosity and help further development of motor skills. Cubbies give each child a place to store personal items such as, shoes, hats and gloves in addition to teaching organizational skills.

Day care center furniture should be purchased with the safety of children in mind, and care center managers will find it a useful practice to research and adhere to federal guidelines when purchasing children’s furniture. All furniture must be of sturdy, colored (not painted) unbreakable plastic, with rounded edges and corners.

All cribs should have bumpers and the slats should be close enough to prevent a child from getting her head caught between them. Toddler cots need to be sturdy when unfolded and close to the floor; children do fall onto the floor occasionally while sleeping therefore, all floors must be carpeted. Mesh enclosed play yards and play pens protect babies’ and toddlers’ heads and extremities from harm, too.

Furniture like book shelves and cubbies must be mounted to the walls and toddler sofas, tables, and chairs bolted to the floor. Daily cleaning and disinfecting procedures along with weekly inspection of day care center furniture will keep down the incidents of illness and ensure no child will be poked, scratched or other wise injured due to disrepair.download godsmack the other side

Folding Tables and Chairs for Your Church

May 23rd, 2009

Lunch is served for visitors but all that colorful content on the plate might just end up on the Sabbath suit of the guest of honor because there aren’t any tables set up, just the same pews moved to the children’s department for the meal time. Sounds familiar? And in the spirit of Christian humility and cooperation nobody complains. The host offers the usual obligatory apology about the young/poor congregation and lack of funds. At the end of the day the fellowship is always more important than the environment in the eternal scheme of things. But if you are the host you wish you could do better. Want to do something about it? Tell yourself that every church should have carefully planned seating design in order to facilitate worship, committee meetings, and social events. But until that day of perfect stewardship when the budget has provided for the large multipurpose dream of you board you need to look at some short to medium term seating solutions. You want to make sure that your deaconate and hospitality coordinator has enough folding chairs and folding tables for planned and ad hoc occasions. If you are the pastor or head deacon of a growing congregation then you also understand the need to rearrange the same space three times in one day. Heavy benches are back-breaking work on the Lord’s Sabbath. And if truth be told 50% of deacons are usually too old to be straining themselves with heavy lifting, pushing and pulling that is involved with the constant rearranging of seating to facilitate the various activities, and groups. The answer: folding tables and chairs. Save cost when you have to feed the multitude at weddings and banquets. Invest in at least 100 extra folding chairs and 10 more folding tables that you store away in the basement. Evangelism is the number one function, the primary enterprise of the Christian religion. When you hold you tent meetings or rent your halls for gospel outreach, you will save on chair rental if you provide some from your stock. Have them clearly labeled with your church abbreviation. For ease of pickup and delivery it might also be a good idea to cluster the placement of the church’s folding chairs at the rented location or tent. Want to earn some money for the needy? Your church could even rent out the folding tables and chairs at below market cost to needy client groups in the congregation and the community. And for those garage sales and flea markets that the enterprising women’s department organizes to raise funds for charity, the folding tables and folding chairs are easy to transport, unload, and set up. Models of tables are lightweight and sturdy, and come in sober colors. One note on managing the communication environment: Put your folding chairs out of sight if you have antisocial worshippers who would rather grab one and sit in the corridor than in the main chapel. Prevent theft of your folding chairs, ask your deacons and ushers to pick up loose chairs and return them to the designated storage area promptly.
