When caring for numerous children in a day care environment and their curiosity and energy it would be a safer environment to have a portable sink outside where the teachers and students have access. For example, most state laws require a certain number of adults supervising children based on the number of children in their care, if there is an issue in which a teacher needs to go inside to wash a childs hand, even for a second, that reduces the number of eyes watching the remaining children on the playground or out during recess. Being a mother that is quite involved in her childs schools and academics, I can relate to the need for immediate attention when a child is hurt or spills something on themselves, so in my impression it really should be a requirement not an option for the reasons noted above. I also believe that if it is posed to the schools in terms of the usefulness of them it would be welcomed.
