[quote=Anonymous]I am the pp who offered up a list. I agree with you--huge changes between when you apply and when the child starts school. 6 months is a long time in the life of a 3 1/2 year old. The schools know this. I guess the safe thing to do is apply and see, and if the more readily apparent readiness doesn't kick into place by the play date, you reapply for kindergarten. Just be sure to also apply to some schools now that don't mind a younger kid, so you have a place to spend the pre-k year. There are so many warm, wonderful pre-k programs that don't gve a hoot about things like WPPSI tests or play dates. I know--I sent one of my kids to one, and although it had a different approach than the competitive programs, he too ended up at a competitive private later and has been doing just fine. [/quote]
