1. What did you discover about the WACs while completing the activity?
   While completing the activity, I discovered that there are many more requirements/regulations than I expected to see. All of them make sense when reading through them, but I never realized how in depth each one was.
2. Were you surprised by any of the WACs?
   No, I was not surprised. Although I had not thought of some of them before, such as the pets and animals and pest control regulations, it makes sense to have those in place.
3. Can you see how the WACs will influence your day-to-day practice in caring for children? Why or why not?
   Yes, I can see how the WACs will influence me because it shows the rules and regulations that I must follow and that my daycare director must enforce.
