What are some ways to make pre-school kids ready for school admissions?

School is the second home for the kids. Lot of preparation is needed before we make our children ready for their academic journey. As a parent you can do a role play so that your child can relate to what all things is done when we go to school. As a parent you can take turns and act out common daily routines like packing your school bags, saying goodbye to mummy or daddy, singing rhymes, having interactive sessions, playing, doing activities etc. Emphasize and assure children that school is place where they will have fun and learn new things. You and your child can go to buy a school bag together and all the stuffs required for their preschool and if possible, allow them to choose it by themselves. This will develop excitement and curiosity in your child and your child will look forward to going to school. Ensure that your child wakes up early in the morning and goes to bed on time. Inculcate healthy eating habits in them. Have a healthy conversation with your child, ask them about their day spent in the school. Have a circle time with your child and ask him/her about their friends, teachers, school etc. Schools also provides environment for children to learn in ways that interests them and builds a positive association with learning. Schools are a great place for the children to interact with their peers and learn lifelong lessons. Schools creates memories and emotional skills within children that they will carry with them for the rest of their life.
