Hi, is anyone else disappointed with what schools offer for after school programs? Here, they just put kids in the cafeteria for 2-3 hours playing board games etc. I know there are drama classes, etc later in the year but its never easy to know in advance if they are any good.

Now, speaking as a mother of twins (not as director of Chevy Chase Reggio ), age 2-4 is too young, in my opinion, to separate twins in preschool. Sure they would survive and get through it if you put them in different classes but I think keeping them together helped my girls gradually find their independence.

Hi, I am director of Chevy Chase Reggio, a preschool for ages 2-5. I am also the mother of twin daughters and we have a set of twins in our program currently. In my opinion, it is very healthy to keep the twins together during preschool. Most likely they will be separated when they enter kindergarten anyway. Twins in particular have a special bond together and keeping them together builds their confidence. That said, however, it is very important that the preschool teacher builds their independence and does not lump the two of them togehter for every exercise. One advantage of having them together is to notice when one twin is overly dominant over the other. If they were separate, it would be more difficult to notice this and guide them toward a more balanced relationship. When its time for kindergarten, I do agree it is appropriate to separate them.

By the way, we have a couple of spaces in our September class. Our next open house is Saturday, August 15 from 10 am to 1 pm. Please stop by or call for a special tour during the week. My phone is 301-951-1885 or email to info@ChevyChaseReggio.com
