No harm in gathering info on how long other kids rides are and how they do.

It doesn’t matter how long other preschoolers ride the bus. What matters is if your bus works for you. If it doesn’t then just drive her. Let her take the bus home if that works for you.

The people going off against it don’t realize the short buses for preschoolers only have a few kids within the same age range riding it and an aide to make sure the harnesses are in place and teachers who wait to receive the kids at drop off.

Pre-K is more of 4 years old
3 is too young for bus imo. Wish it had seatbelts


So 4 years old is okay to ride the bus but not 3 years old? What in that year makes a difference?

Everyone, including forum posters and teachers, swears every kid loves taking the bus.

Do not let your 3 year old take the bus if you don’t have to. Suck it up.

Could you drive her and then have her take the bus home? She'll still be able to sleep in. You'll get some data on how she feels about the bus and can decide then if driving or busing both directions makes sense.

If your child is at a county preschool and rides the school bus that comes to your house, how long is the ride? How far do you live from the school?

My 3 year old is about to start preschool at a public school. We are eligible for a short yellow bus to come to our house to pick her up and drop her off. However we only live 10 minutes away from the school. I am apprehensive about having my 3 year old take a bus and worse, if the bus ride becomes long like over 30 minutes. The school starts at 9am and my daughter typically wakes up at 8am. I can get away with leaving the house at 8:45am if I take her. If the bus has to come to our house earlier like at 8:25am to get her to school she would have to wake up earlier to get ready.
