[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here: I am not sure I want to do it BUT I just want to know if it is an option. Both DH and I started kinder at 4 and it was really a good choice for us. We were both ready, so I don't think it is out of line to think that DS could be ready then. [/quote] Kinder is not what it used to be. It is not age appropriate for many 5 and 6 year olds, much less a young five or 4 year old. I would not do it, especially if you are in fcps.[/quote] My child is an early September birthday and academically she is doing well but she is not ready maturity wise. I wish she did have an October birthday so I would not have felt compelled to send her on time ( I know I didn't to). She is reading really well etc but kindergarten is very demanding in terms of executive functioning skills. Some children are not ready for that part of it even if they can complete the academic work [/quote]
