| 2023-08-22 | Violation | 701 | .1719(a)(1)&(17) |
| All indoor and outdoor areas used by the children were not kept clean, orderly, and free of items which are potentially hazardous to children including removal of items a child can swallow; the removal of loose nails or screws and splinters on inside; and use of outdoor equipment that is too hot to touch. The outdoor area was not free of items which are potentially hazardous to the children. The wooden border was raised and only mounted in the center of the board. The board was warped and easily moved which could be a tripping hazard. The large weed block that extended along the entire side of the gross motor play area had grass growing up through it and was a tripping hazard as it was wrinkled and lifted in several areas. | |||
