Going back to school after the holidays can be tricky sometimes. Here are three tips to ease the transition!
1. Provide reminders or countdowns! I prefer visual reminders - calendars, countdown chains, or sticky notes representing each day before school.
2. Get your child involved in the prep work! Let them choose their outfit, shoes, snack, lunch, the song they want to listen to on the way to school, the book they want to read the night before, etc. We want them to feel included and in control of the situation!
3. Have your child share three things they are looking forward to at school! It can be anything - seeing their friends, playing blocks, reading a book, or sharing what they did over the break. And you do the SAME! Maybe you're excited to hear about their day, make them a special lunch, or say hi to their teacher.
I hope this helps! :)
