[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]In home daycares. We have kept ours longer than we would have (normally would have transitioned to preschool) because the provider doesn’t require masks on the kids and is reasonable about childhood illnesses. The kids haven’t gotten sick in droves like many would lead you to believe. In fact, we have had one cold and stomach bug in 20+ months. I call that a win. [/quote] We LOVE our in home daycare and are going to pull our kids from school to go back full time here soon I think. But I really think my son will need a more structured environment soon to prepare him for Kindergarten. He's already a late summer bday and may need an extra year and he's been thriving at preschool part time. But we can't be testing every day for his perpetually runny nose. [/quote] Honestly, leave him. Kids are hitting kindergarten at so many levels right now (I say this a a K parent and someone who works in admin at a private school). There are many kids who have had no school, or just a nanny or name your option. Continuity and your sanity is more important than skills that are taught In the first 3 months of K. We left our K kid in in home due to the need for the provider to be open without continual shutdowns and stupid requirements based solely in fear. My child has an august bday so I feel like we are in similar situations. [/quote]
