Last week when I took a few of my DCks to the pumpkin patch i met a fellow provider who had a few kids the same ages as mine (2 & 3yrs) but she also had two little ones (under a year) with her and it got me thinking about outings.
When do you starting taking the little ones on field trips (if you do them)? This provider seemed to have everything under control and I'm not judging her care, it just got me thinking about the little ones in my care.
I have no qualms about taking my own child (nearly a year) along on any and all field trips I do with the 2 and up crowd but I'm wondering when other providers usually start doing activities outside the DC with younger DCKs, or if you do it at all. I don't necessarily mean large field trips. I take the younger ones to the park when we all walk there but other activities I usually plan on days the little ones aren't there.
