    Description
    This course provides directed laboratory experience in the campus Child Development Center. Students examine effective routines and transitional activities in the organization and structure of an early child development setting. The class emphasizes positive guidance techniques for young children, and the selection of equipment and materials for young children that are developmentally age appropriate. This course may be used toward the field experience component for the State of California Child Development Permit. It is intended for students who plan careers in early childhood and family support programs and for parents who seek practical experience in guiding and teaching children.
