A friend has just been told that as soon as child is talking there is no need to do a daily dairy?

I do a daily diary until child is in full time school!

that way I don't forget to tell parents something and parents can easily chat to child about the day. I also use diary to list meals/sleeps/nappies etc.

how often do you ask a pre-schooler what they did that day and they say 'nothing' or just say the very last thing they did!

but its whatever works for each individual minder and mindee!

Parent - what have you done today?

Child - nothing

Parent - what have you eaten today?

Child - chips

Parent - did you have a sleep?

Child - shrugs and walks away

I prefer to let parents know what their child has done myself :laughing:

It may only be a requirement until their talking, that doesn't mean continuing to do a diary until they are at school is bad practice!
