Starting school is a major
milestone for our children, and for us. As we watch
them enter this new world, we know they will face challenges, learn an enormous
amount, and hopefully have fun.
Helping our children feel confident and comfortable at school is a goal we
all share.
Tips:
• Let them tell you about school friends, class work, and what
happens during the day.
• Ask them about the rules in school and the reasons for the rules.
