[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My child recently turned 3 and I’ve been thinking we’d start preschool later this fall or next spring. She is adamant she doesn’t want to go, and she wants to stay home (with nanny, baby, and work from home mom and dad). Do other 3 year olds show more enthusiasm for preschool? She was at an in home daycare a year ago for a few months and didn’t like it.

We have the option to do just 1 or 2 days a week (3 hours a day) at a place that’s more like daycare with other 3 year olds and then transition her to a real preschool. That’s probably a bad idea since it’ll mean another transition, right?  The preschool is only 3 hours a day, 3 days a week. [/quote]

No 3 year old has any ideas about preschool. They are too young to grasp the concept. Of course your 3 year old wants what she's used to. At that age they tend to not like change. What they may show "liking" for is playing in the company of other children.

My 2.5 year old just started preschool. I did not consult his opinion. The transition was fairly easy. A little crying the first week of drop offs but by the fourth day he was asking for "more school."

Yes, my 3 year old had no idea it was any kind of “school.”  It was just another fun activity.[/quote]
