[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think the difference between a 2 year old and 3 year old is bigger than a 4 year old and 5 year old. I would not delay until the year before kindergarten, that way you also keep open the option of not redshirting. Also, your child will eventually know no matter what year you delay.[/quote] many families do the K year in Montessori and then come late Fall (if private school apps are due) or late Spring (if going to public school) apply as either a repeat K or go right into 1st grade as your age says to. You buy another whole year to see what their learning style is, what is sticking, behavioral issues or not, etc. At that young age every 4 or 5 months they step function up in ability to sit, listen, retain, practice, learn, etc. Exciting times![/quote]
