[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Preschool is not just about academics. It is learning how to function in a group setting with other children, sit in circle, listen to the teacher, line up, etc. Playing with other children and navigating social relationships is important, and it is different when you are with the same kids in class every day than on a play date every once in a while or with a sibling. Each of my children gained confidence going to preschool and were very proud to show of their accomplishments from there. Personally, I couldn't imagine not sending my child to preschool. I'm not sure there are any kids in my child's kindergarten who skipped preschool, but I do not for sure. All of my child's friends attended. I do know that when my child was 3 or 4 and in gym class, the child not in preschool had a much harder time following the teacher's instructions and the teacher had to spend a lot of time dealing with her.
