[quote=Anonymous]Put on a big smile and show her that it's exciting. The bus will be late dropping off for the first week b/c the driver is getting to know the kids and will make sure every kid on the list is getting off at the right point. Put her on the bus the first day. Meet her if you wish on the other side, but know that they will have teachers and patrols meeting kids to get them to the right room. Also, she will go to the open house, right? That will get her used to the room and teacher (a little). hundreds of thousands of 5 yr olds go to kindergarten every year.... they survive and thrive. Your child will too. Be prepared for the second week of school to be the "I don't want to go" part. The kids think it's all cool and fun the first week, but when they realize THIS IS THE DEAL FOR EVERY WEEK, some of them freak out and resist school with tears and drama. Since your kid has been in daycare, she will probably be just fine.[/quote]
