It is important to know where the “hot spots” and “blind spots” are in indoor and outdoor program spaces. On a separate sheet of paper, draw a map of the indoor or outdoor space and spend some time observing how children play and interact there. Each time you see a problem behavior or an injury, mark an X where it occurred. At the end of your observation, look for patterns and answer the questions below. Discuss your findings with the direct care team and brainstorm solutions. Consider posting cutouts of suns in the hotspots and sunglasses in the blind spots to remind staff members to be extra watchful in those areas.

1. What areas had the most "hot spots"?

    
2. What are some possible reasons for the problem?

    
3. What supervision changes could prevent these problems?
