[quote=Anonymous]Absolutely. It is so necessary for their socialization, to learn to take instruction from other adults, to be put in a new environment and learn how to manage new scenarios without you or a nanny nearby. Others will jump in to say you don’t have to rush the learning side of things, but my daughter turned four just before pre-K began this year. She knew all of her letters and numbers, could write her name, and could count to 20 going into school. After barely 2 months she can now identify a couple dozen sight words, knows all of her phonics, and has learned to count to 100. Additionally, she is so incredibly happy, has made a lot of friends, has become much less shy and much more outgoing and independent. It has been an absolute win-win for us.[/quote]
