[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My 2.5yo and 4mo have a nanny. We will keep the nanny until the 4mo goes to school... So my question is... If we're going to have the nanny either way should we send the 2.5yo to prek? We're in DC so potentially have a good-ish free Prek option near home next year. But does a 3yo really benefit from going? Or could it be just as beneficial for to spend the PK3 year playing with park friends and going on nanny adventures and hanging with their sibling? It would probably be good for 2.5yo to have some more structured time to prepare for K... but isn't K just to prepare for the rest of school? [/quote] Maybe during the pandemic and/or in rural areas without good preschool options and where K is half day, K is used to "prepare for the rest of school." But around here, almost everyone does some sort of group care/schooling to prepare their kids before they enter K.[/quote]
