Scenario: Kent Not Helping Set Up The Playground

[Preete]

You are on the early morning shift with your colleague kent who tells you he has had a late night and is feeling a little seedy . You and kent are responsible for setting up the outdoor area . You are requires to set up A-farmes, a portable tunnel , stepping blocks, walking boards and balance beams to create an obstacle course. Kent puts out the sand play equipment and then sits down. You tell him you are waiting for him to help you with the obstacle course equipment. He says he has a headache and says "just drag it out, its not that heavy." What would you do ?

[Lorina]

Well maybe ask Kent to go inside and grab a drink of water. Try and create an obstacle course with the equipment that isn't heavy, wait for another educator to help you set up the heavy equipment...

Child care providers question my answer is ... Minimise outdoor play during the day or wearing a sun safe hat, wearing safety clothes , apply sunscreen lotion during outdoor play, wearing sunglasses.

For sunsmart question my answer is..... We should tell children about uv radiation, including sunburn , dehydration, eye damage and skin cancer and we should follow the same procedure because we are the role model for children and they influence by us.
