Inspection help pls

[sumayra]

Hi
I have my first inspection next week wed Mrs O has told me she will be here at 11 spend 2 hours on my paperwork and then 2 hours observation. My mindee doesnt come till 1 and then will be gone by 3. I have 2 children of my own, do I need to plan activities for them the whole time Mrs O is here? Also any ideas of activities I could plan for my mindee and my daughter who are 4? Hopefully my 1 year old will be asleep by 1 so will be a little easier!! sorry about all the questions just very very nervous

Try not to introduce new things - the children may not react well to change. Plan activities that they enjoy. that follow their interests and are suitable for the next steps that you have recorded for them.

Also avoid the tempation to rush around trying to everything in the hope of impressing - just do what you normally do - you are far more likely then to do well at those things.

Some open ended play might work if children used to it rather than 'activities that are over in 5 or 10 mins.

Good luck

Penny :)
