(a) If children are in care for five or more consecutive
hours, you must have 80 square feet of outdoor activity space for
each child using the outdoor activity area at one time, or the indoor
activity space must allow for room and equipment that permits children
the opportunity to engage in age appropriate active play.
(b) If you were licensed before September 1, 2003,
you do not have to comply with the outdoor activity space requirements
specified in subsection (a) of this section unless the permit issued
prior to September 1, 2003, is no longer valid.
(c) As long as children are in care for less than five
consecutive hours, you are not required to have outdoor activity space
if your program provides only indoor instruction that is fundamental
to the core development of a skill, talent, ability, expertise, or
proficiency that requires physical activity.
