​Ease the Transition From Nursery School to Kindergarten

At Miss Sue's Nursery School, we understand that it can be difficult for a child to transition from nursery school to kindergarten. Luckily, we are here with helpful tips to make the change a little bit easier.

• Allow your child to express thoughts and feelings about transitioning to kindergarten. You may be able to calm some of their fears. 
• Reassure your child that they will still be able to see their friends from nursery school. After all, play dates are easy to coordinate. 
• Read your child books about kindergarten. That way, they will have an idea of what to expect.
• Establish an early morning routine with your child prior to attending kindergarten.
• Go over what a typical day is like.

Our kindergarten program is an extension of our nursery school philosophy. Children continue to work at their own levels in learning centers. More challenging reading and math readiness skills are presented through language experience activities and child-centered investigations. Are you interested in enrolling your child at Miss Sue's?
