[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I work at a part day preschool and we are hoping to open in the fall. With a lot of changes.

There will be limited spaces (ie 8 kids to a classroom) and possibly abbreviated hours. Carline pickup and drop offs instead of parents walking them in and out of the building. No dress up clothes and playdoh, things that are hard to disinfect. It will be different, but should still be beneficial to the students.[/quote]

Honest question, and I don’t mean to be snarky, but can you tell me how you think this is beneficial to a preschooler?  We’ve already decided to have a nanny for our kids but are thinking about if we want to send our 2.5 year old to part time preschool.  The restrictions make it sound like a very different experience than what we wanted for him, and it’s not a necessity so it doesn’t seem worth the risk.  But I’d love to hear perspectives I’m not thinking about.[/quote]

Social interaction for kids is so important at an early age.  Being around kids their age, you seeing your child interact with kids daily helps with their developement.[/quote]

I’m sorry but this idea is so overblown.  A two year old will be fine not going to an expensive preschool.  I understand why it’s important before kindergarten, but a two year old?  No.  Especially if, in phases one and two, the kids will be discouraged from being close to each other and will be wearing masks. [/quote]
