‘Praise, encouragement and rewards’ is an online article from the Australian Raising Children website. Read it through and make notes on anything you might be able to use in your setting.
This resource from the Twinkl website is on ‘The five senses: Activities for kids’.
This research titled ‘Positive greetings at the door’ was conducted in schools but it demonstrates the benefits of positive greetings at the door (PGD). What is the process in your setting for meeting and greeting the children and young people? Do you offer a mix of physical (handshake, high five etc) and non-physical (saying ‘hi’, ‘glad to see you’ etc)? How do you tailor the greeting to the individual?
The ‘Observation, assessment and planning cycle’ from Birth to 5 matters is included as a reminder that to meet the individual needs of children and young people you first need to observe the child, then assess or reflect on what you have noticed, then plan and provide activities and resources to promote individual development and learning.
