Here is the Cozy Corner I got from lakeshore with my grant!

New Block Area
|
|
The children use the kitchen beauty area together. I have separated them over and over again. The kids just bring them back together. It is what works for them and allows them to be creative and imaginative!

2's & 3's Set Up
|
Keeping things at a low level for the younger group of children.
|
Not only sharing what works - but what doesn't. This set up was too crowded with too many choices and no separate areas.
|
No dividers caused the children to walk in each other's play areas. To avoid this it is important to set up so that children can play in an area without being interrupted by children walking to another play area.
|
Keeping the supplies close and readily accessible to the children.
|
Labeling everything makes for easy clean up time!
|
It is important to create areas for "quiet" time.
|
My 1 1/2 year old needed her own play area - so I created one with all the Little People toys. She plays uninterrupted and content!
|
Slowy making changes to set up centers. Here is the start of my quiet corner.
|
Reading Corner
|
These are workstations I just had built for only $200.00. Sometimes the kids like to work alone. They can do puzzles, draw, crafts... whatever they choose in these areas.
