So why is there no recipe for the perfect room for infant and toddlers, and how do factors such as architecture, light, airflow, room shape, community context, and the children themselves influence design decisions?

I think to start with, we need to consider the architecture of our room.

We don't get a blank canvas.

There is naturally going to be windows and ceilings and doorways that exist within our learning spaces that we really have to think about before we come, before we start placing things in a room.

And that's why there isn't a recipe, because what works well in one space or one type of architecture design, if I pick that up and plonk it in a different room, it's not going to work because the architecture of the space is gonna be different.

So when we design with that architecture, we need to notice and respond.

So having thinking about the light, the shape of the room, the entryway.

Mm.
