Organization is vital for running a smooth day care facility. Any time you have a large group of children in one place, things can become chaotic. Keeping things such as paper, glue, scissors, tape and other craft supplies in a designated spot can make a huge difference in determining rather your day runs smooth or falls apart. Activity tables are a great idea for keeping supplies handy, but out of the way. Many activity tables come with wooden table tops that can be lifted up so that supplies, such as paper and writing utensils can be stored inside. They come in a variety of sizes, ranging from toddler style, with only one individual chair and desk to larger work areas where multiple children can sit around one table. If your center is looking to add more games, some great activity tables on the market today are actually made with games built in. Toddlers love the playing with wooden beads, but they can be dangerous if swallowed. Activity tables with wire attachments that allow beads to slide up and down without coming off is a great concept that provides hours of play, but keep the children safe and the room tidy.
