Case Study 1

You have a playhouse in your garden that all children love to use. On looking through a catalogue you see that the age range for using the playhouse is 3 years plus. You have two year olds in your setting and are concerned that the playhouse will be a safety risk. It would be impossible to prevent your 2 year olds form using the playhouse when they all go out to play together.
