Designed to help family home care providers address the needs of children at various developmental stages, this manual provides practical suggestions for encouraging and evaluating children's social and emotional development. The manual is divided into four sections focusing respectively on infants, toddlers, preschool children, and school-aged children. Each section contains: (1) a brief summary of the social and emotional developmental tasks appropriate for the child of the age level discussed in the section; (2) suggestions for activities to help caregivers evaluate each child's developmental level; (3) questions to help caregivers evaluate their home's potential as an environment for fostering healthy social and emotional development; (4) a variety of developmentally appropriate activity ideas; and (5) an activity evaluation form. Ordering information is also provided for a free newsletter series, "Family Day Care Connections," and the "In-Home Daycare" video which was designed to accompany this manual. (MM)
