Countdown to Kindergarten
Take the time to explain to your child it is normal to have mixed feelings about starting kindergarten. Many kids are both excited and nervous about beginning this new adventure. If they are feeling nervous, help them name what it is they are feeling nervous about and brainstorm ways to help. Let them know that kindergarten is a safe place and that their teachers are so excited to meet them!
