It includes two practicum sessions: one with infants and one with toddlers. During these sessions you will be able to incorporate classroom theory into a real work situation. 

You learn playtime activities for infants and toddlers which will help them develop senses as well as various skills such as health and safety, child development, ethical standards, guidance and nutrition.
