Some parents do not want to leave their children and want to stay and socialise. Some parents want their children in a home based group like with a childminder.

1.1) Development is holistic. There are many various areas of development and each area of development is individual in its own right.

Other important theorists to look at are George Herbert Mead (1863-1931) and Lev Vygotsky (1896-1934).…

By offering these clubs different agencies can work together for the benefit of each child.…
