Some kids have been in preschool for half a day.
or for a few hours in the day.
And now they're having to be at school for an extended period of time and having to focus for longer periods of time.
And so gradually increasing opportunities for children to pay attention and focus for extended periods of time is also helpful in preparing them for that transition.
So that's just another thing I wanted to
Yeah, I would say that to really trust your intuition, you know, and parents are often, you know, in deference to teachers and pediatricians, but you know your child better than anyone else.
And so when you're choosing a school, you're choosing a good match for your child, right?
And again, you're making that decision based on your child's strengths and gaps that your child may have.
And to not be afraid to
to ask preschool teachers and to ask pediatricians about what your child needs.
And sometimes you may need to ask more than once.
With my own son, who's five years old, he had articulation issues early on.
And initially it was very cute because he couldn't say some words.
And we would go to the pediatrician and she would say, he's fine.
You know, there's nothing to worry about.
And I remember we were at the end of our appointment and my hand was on the doorknob getting ready to leave.
And I said to her, do you think that we should consider speech therapy for him?
And she said, oh, you know what?
He is having a difficult time kind of saying some of those words.
And yes, it's something you should consider.
