Pretend that you are a child development consultant whose client wants to have the most stimulating and encouraging nursery possible.
The client wants to know how to arrange the nursery, what type of furniture and baby gear to buy, colors for the walls and the bedding, and what types of toys to buy.
Consider:
Should the baby have a swing? Specific toys?
Should there be music, and if so, what type of music is best?
Should the baby have a television?
What type of lighting should be in the room?
What type of bedding is appropriate?
Write a 1 page (typed) letter to the expectant parents, detailing your suggestions about every part of the baby's room. Write the letter in such a way that the parents could take your report and furnish the entire room with your suggestions and instructions.
Keep in mind that infant's environments should be stimulating to the developing senses, and also safe!
Remember to cite your sources if you use materials other than your textbook for background information.
