I keep most of my toys in the understairs cupboard and in my dd room. I told my inspector where they were but she never wanted to see them

I have not had an inspector who wanted to look at all my toys but one wanted to see evidence of my multicultural resources when I first started.

ive only had a pre reg visit and inspector had look in every cupboard room etc .. make sure no drugs.dangerous items etc ...when came to my cupboard under stairs (where i have a shelf for board games/puzzles etc) she did ask if i would allow the children in there ..only coz the cupboard has strimmer, radio contrl cars etc etc in it ... said no i will get what i think needs to come out or if a child asks me for a certain game... she3 was happy with that.
but i guess with you due to having to go out the mindees will have to go with you or something. .. dont know how ofsted get with leaving mindees in house while you go out of it sorry

At my last inspection we didn't have the playroom so all the toys were in the storeroom and yes she did poke her nose in the room.
She also asked me if the children were allowed to get the toys themselves, which they weren't.

I also keep my toys in my garage and in my understairs cupboard as well as some in my kitchen. Ofsted have never looked before, they have been happy with me just telling them but I suppose they could ask to have a look so me thinking it might be a good idea to tidy the garage :eek: in case I get a call :)

Most of mine are in the garage, inspector was happy with this, i said that as i have older children at moment they tell me what they would like to the next time they are here and i get out before they arriv what is needed. she was happy wit this.

although all my toys are at reach, she didn't really look, but asked me what sort of things I have. Very keen on multicutral stuff (but I was picked up on not having enough at my last inspection:rolleyes: )
