One Day at a Time
One Day at a Time is a resource for families to promote their child’s development.
It has hands on activities organised under key developmental areas.
The resource is designed for children accessing early year’s services, and for parents to use collaboratively with early childhood workers.
The resource consists of four observational developmental checklists.
These checklists cover the following skilled areas.
- Moving Around Skills
- Using Hand Skills
- Communication Skills
- Play Skills
Within these checklists, skills are organised in a developmental sequence (the typical order in which children learn different skills). Parents and early childhood workers together observe and identify which skills are present, which are not, and which are emerging. For emerging skills, matched activity sheets are selected. There are 160 activity sheets which correspond to the developmental areas that are the focus of this resource.
The activity sheets helps parents encourage the skill by incorporating that skill into daily routines such as bathing, dressing, mealtimes, playing and outings. The checklist can be used to monitor progress over time. Parents can tick and date columns as they notice their child attempting to do or doing new activities.
Please read the manual to find out more on how and why One Day at a Time can help you with your child’s development.
