Careful observation is central to gaining insight into the various facets of young children’s development. It provides detailed information about a child’s behavior, interests and competencies. Through careful observations, we are able to meet, respond and support the needs of the children appropriately.

It will also provide them with opportunities to practice their observations skills and make comparisons about their findings, as well as developing a simple individual programme.
