BTDT on the "water" play. Spent many hundreds of hours doing it.
I'm over it. 
I think you are probably the laziest daycare person I have ever heard of. If the FP stopped paying you to feed the kids would you stop doing that too since it takes time and money to prep, feed, and clean up? You claim all these great things about your daycare, why couldn't the kids get themselves dressed for the most part? We do water play a lot and almost all my kids get themselves 1/2 or completely ready on their own. Sunscreen is a daily activity so that doesn't matter to me. I would rather my kids have a good time at daycare than clean the floor, or finish paperwork etc. And just because you have "BTDT" as you say doesn't mean there is no longer value in it. Old people like yourself can do things simply for the kids sake regardless of how many times you have done it in your life. Ridiculous.
