- Routines enable young children to anticipate what happens next and gives them a great deal of control over what they do during each part of the day.
- To give children a sense of knowing, adds to the predictability and can be used as valuable learning opportunities for children to explore and experiment in a safe and secure environment.
- Routines and transitions help children to develop self control, independence and decision making. Consistent daily routines support active learning.
- Consistency in routines and transitions support appropriate behaviour and a sense of independence for the children.
