Furniture Needs for Childcare Centers

Childcare furniture AUS plays a very important part in familiarizing children with school environment and training them for what is to come in the future. Children need to develop early math skills, such as sorting, comparing, and counting, to build the foundation for math skills and concepts they will learn about and develop in school.

A must have childcare furniture for childcare centers:

Stack & Sort Board - Children get to manipulate shapes while matching them up and eventually counting them with this simple and compact wooden game. Children learn through their senses and this lets them see, touch and even hear the clank of the shapes as they place them on the pegs. A true must have for all early education classes.

Child-Safe Scissor Set - Scissor skills are so important and using scissors that are safe, fit in a child’s hand and fun to use is a must. These scissors are the perfect addition to a classroom.

Tabletop Paper Roll Dispenser - Learning to write begins with drawing and this table top paper dispenser is a great option for a class that wants children to feel welcome to draw. Plain paper and crayons is all you need to encourage young children to make their mark, and this dispenser makes that easier than ever to set it all up.

Magnetic Wooden Alphabet - Providing a classroom with countless opportunities to be exposed to and play with letters is imperative and these magnetic letters are perfect to accomplish that goal. You can let children explore them with cookie sheets, turn them into a fishing game or integrate them into block play.

Basic Skills Learning Board - Part of preschool is learning skills that help children become more independent. This basic skills learning board is a wonderful way to practice these skills in a fun way.

Kickball - Kids need to move their bodies and this kickball will turn any ball game into something fun. Outside time isn’t just time filler, it’s time to learn about sharing, team work and work on gross motor skills.

Childcare furniture AUS must also need chairs for staff to hold, rock, and cuddle babies, but avoid rocking chairs as they cause injuries to babies every year. Instead, place glider rockers in your nursery. Have music available in your nursery with simple lyrics you can sing to the babies as you hold and play with them. A TV and a library of movies can also be used to help children learn. The simple act of holding a child and reading is one that not only helps a child learn, but also communicates that the church nursery is a safe and comforting place for a young child to be. Consider painting a specific wall in your classroom with chalkboard paint. Paint your chalkboard at a preschooler’s height so kids can draw with colored chalk and use their imaginations. Or ask them to draw specific things that connect with the lesson you’re teaching for the day. Paint another wall with magnetic paint. Kids can make magnets or you can add magnetic strips to old figures for storytelling and independent play.

When it comes to education, it's important for children to be placed in an environment that is friendly, welcoming, comfortable, and promotes learning. Childcare is no exception. A childcare classroom should be filled with age-appropriate childcare furniture AUS, toys that encourage creativity and learning, reading materials and resources, storage equipment.
