The nurse is planning a program for a preschool group at a day care center. What should the nurse plan to include for an effective presentation for this age group?
1. Activities to keep children busy for about an hour
2. An interactive computer game
3. Have another nurse available to answer questions
4. Colorful pictures of foods
4
Rationale: The nurse has a responsibility to plan activities that are age-appropriate. Pre-school age children have a short attention span and like bright colors. The nurse can be an effective teacher in this setting by having colorful pictures of healthy foods that children can readily identify. A computer game is not an effective strategy for this age group, nor should it be necessary to have another nurse.
