Yes that's just what I was going to say.
Childminders are special because they off home from home type care with a variety of situations that you would not get in other types of day care.
As far as I'm concerned you should give them the same type of life as they would have if they were at home with mum or dad.
Before I became a childminder, I would take my kids shopping, do arts and crafts, have educational activities all with the added bonus of being able to take advantage of that sunny day for a trip to the park. It worked for them so that's how I treat the minded kids now.
They've all grown up to be well adjusted, clever individuals so why change a good formula?
