영아들이 보육시설에 적응하는 것이 유아와는 다른 특징을 갖고 있으므로(구수연, 2004) 영아들의 보육시설에 ‘적응’의 문제를 중심으로 하여 1～2세 영아기의 주축 발달인 신체 발달을 통한 움직임에서의 ‘조절’을 통하여 프로그램을 계획할 필요가 있다. 연구문제는 다음과 같다. 첫째, 1, 2세 영아의 신체 발달에 따른 움직임과 적응과는 어떤 관계를 지니는가?. 둘째, 영아의 적응으로 고려한 프로그램은 어떻게 구성될 수 있는가? 영아들이 보육시설에 적응하는 문제는 결국 자신의 움직임을 가정이 아닌 교실에 맞게 조절하는 것을 말하며 이것은 비단 신체적인 움직임에만 국한되는 것이 아니라, 정서적인 조절, 사회적 관계 형성에 있어서 타인에 대한 조절, 언어적인 조절을 의미하는 것이다. 영아들에게 있어 이런 각 발달 영역의 조절이란 결국 교실에 적합한 움직임과 상황에 적절한 행동을 하는 것이다. 영아들의 적응과 움직임의 조절을 고려하여 1, 2세 영아들을 위한 프로그램은 다음과 같은 원칙으로 구성되어야 한다. 첫째, 1, 2세 영아들을 위한 보육 프로그램은 영아들이 자신을 조절하고 환경을 이해하여 첫 사회생활에서 성공적으로 적응할 수 있도록 도와주어야 한다. 둘째, 영아의 신체발달을 중심으로 한 조화로운 발달을 촉진하며, 유아의 역동적 자아 형성을 돕는 프로그램이어야 한다. 셋째, 영아의 능동적 탐색과 발달을 지지함으로써 정서적 안정감을 제공하여야 한다.

Toddlers' adaptation to child care center is different from the children's adaptation to kindergarten. So It's needed to plan the toddlers' program based on the 'adaptation', through the movement which is the most outstanding developmental area during the 1～2 years. The subjects of this study are：First, what is the relationship between the adjustment of movement and adaptation to the classroom? Second, How can the program be organized considered the adaptation of toddlers' to the child care center? The adaptation of toddlers to the child care center is not only adjusting the physical movement of toddlers. The adjustment of the physical movement can lead the emotional control, adjustment to others who consist the classroom environment, and the profit use of language needed in the classroom. |I propose the program for the 1～2 year toddlers regarded the relationship between adaptation and movement of toddlers. The program should be organized：First, the program for toddlers can help the adaptation of toddlers to child care center through toddlers' understand and adjustment to environment. Second, the program for toddlers can help the whole development of toddlers through the physical development and help to make the dynamic self of the toddlers. Third, the program for toddlers can support active exploration of toddlers and give the toddlers emotional stability.
