All staff stated infant children, who crawl, roam the small classroom, and explore toys and a wall activity center where children often pull themselves up to the activity wall display. Staff stated they keep a close eye on each child while at play. In addition, staff stated it is common for children of this age to stumble and fall as they learn to balance. Staff stated they watch each child closely and are in close proximity, ready to assist a falling child when necessary. (CONT. 9099-C)
