Equipment and Materials
Jungle Jumparoo located in the daycare room has foam matting underneath and mats covering the walls on two sides. According to the manufacturer's description, this equipment is only to be used for children 2 years old or older. The Jumaproo was observed to be used by children under the age of 2 during the visit. After this was discussed with the educator, she placed a play yard around the structure, so the equipment is inaccessible to children under 2. After reviewing photos of the Jumparoo and in discussion with the EEC Regional Director, it was decided that only two children will be approved to use the equipment at one time. Per the EEC Inner Tube policy, the educator must submit a written safety plan to the licensor. The inner tube policy was emailed to the educator with details on what information must be included in the safety plan.
