Hello childmnders

Am just starting up and was just wondering about photographs. If making a scrap book for the children's development etc, and we use photos, is it OK to have other children in the pictures? Eg, if a child was invloved in a group activity, would I have to cut the other children out? Would be a real shame because to have them all in would surely show the interaction between the children and the fun they're having.
Any thoughts on this?

just get permission from parents and you can ( pretty much) do what you like with the photos. my photo permission form includes use in the observation files of other children within the setting. if parents dont give permission then you could black out the faces.

Great! I'll adjust my permission form to inform the photos will be shared with all the parents.
Thanks guys!
