The teachers at Kinderland takes pride in ensuring each new child feels welcome and safe in their new environment.
As the new school year approaches, it is time to help your child get ready for an exciting start at Kinderland! Whether your child is starting preschool for the first time or moving up to a new class, it is an important milestone. Parents can play a big role in easing the transition. Here are some tips to prepare for the upcoming school year:
Talk about school: Start discussing school with your child before the first day. Read books about starting preschool and visit Kinderland together to get familiar with the environment. Talking positively about school will help your child feel excited.
Establish a routine: Children thrive on routine. Set regular wakeup and bedtimes as well as usual morning routines. This helps your child adjust to the school day’s structure. Introducing the school uniform early can also create a sense of pride and belonging.
Kinderland children are encouraged to be independent at an early stage of their development. Through independence, children develop vital qualities such as patience, concentration and self-help.
Encourage independence: Preschool is a time to practice self-help skills. Kinderland fosters independence at school, so it is only appropriate to encourage your child with small tasks. For example, dress themselves, use the bathroom, and clean up after playtime. These small tasks will build their confidence and independence.
Prepare emotionally: The first day of school can bring different emotions. It is normal for children to feel nervous or excited. Reassure your child that these feelings are valid, and that school will be fun. Give them a hug and remind them that you will be back to pick them up.
Parents can talk to them about the different things they will learn in school. School is where learning is fun especially with friends!
Stay in touch with teachers: Building a strong relationship with Kinderland teachers is essential. Share important details about your child to help the teachers better support them as they adjust.
With a little preparation, your child will be ready to start the year confident, excited, and eager to learn! We look forward to having your little one to start at Kinderland!
