OP... no. It's not a dumb question at all... maybe you could have worded it differently, but it's a totally legitimate question.
I have actually noticed that on parenting boards, or working mothers boards that the parents will say "My provider never ever stops interacting with her group, EvER... she hears their every breath, she sees their every move, lunch magically makes it'self, and the children sit on her lap the entire day while she sings little songs in their ear.".
But, in reality, they do a lot without being watched closely. I DO actually hear everything, but the kids don't know I do.
We just had lunch, they can play for about 20 more minutes, and then we have to clean up and get mats out. After nap, they pretty much play and eat snack, but leave soon after nap.
