Abstract

A survey was conducted to look at some of the basic activities and materials of the literacy environments in home day care centres in St Joseph County, Indiana, USA. The literacy environments of preschools and centres, as well as the home environments of early readers, were used to provide the initial framework for the discussion. Results of the survey indicate that, although some of the home day care centres do provide a conducive literacy environment, other children do not have access to basic materials and activities. Suggestions are provided for early childhood educators in advocating for supportive literacy environments in home day care centres.
