It means that you have to evaluate the equipment and resources individually.

THEN you make an overall comment in the end. From your evaluations, DO YOU think the centre provides enough equipment and resources that reflects Diversity. So you have to ask yourself this question.

Tricky isn't it. You need to really read the question and then understand it.

Cultural Diversity consists of items that are from different countries, that are used or displayed in the childcare setting.

INDOOR Setting

You can have:

A poster displaying different flags of the countries of the children's cultural background.

A poster displaying "welcome" words translated in different languages.

Toys such as Russian Babushka Dolls can be used for children to play with.

Aboriginal Art such as the boomerang, Aboriginal Flag, Didgeridoo, kangaroo displayed in the room.

You can have a multicultural corner displaying children national costumes.

Provide meals from different cultures in the centre's food menu

Have chinese lanterns, Indian Dream Catchers, hanging in the room.

Dress up corner, provide children with different cultural costumes to dress up with.

Chinese New Year Display of chopsticks, pictures of traditional costumes, chinese words on a poster, chinese tea pots etc. Set it up in the corner with a bright red table cloth.

Provide a variety of books in the book corner in different languages that the children speak.

Puzzles displaying aboriginal art.

That is all.
