Did you know the state tells child care centers they have to take your children outside daily? So make sure to always send your child prepared to go outside! I copied our policy below...



Daily outdoor play

North Carolina childcare law states all children have to have outdoor play daily weather permitting. This includes temperature over 20 degrees (take wind chill factor into account)

Please dress your child in layers
Water will always be provided and encouraged
Hands will be checked every 15 min. for temperature.
Time limited to 10-20 min. at a time on temperature extreme days
Hot days time limited between hours 10-4
Sunscreen applied on hot, sunny days
