Repost from Parenting... New School and Bus!
Mason will be 3 on Monday! How fast these 3 years flew!!
His EI ends and starting Tuesday he'll be going to the local Early Learning preschool where he'll get Speech everyday. Then they have a summer program. I know going from getting Speech once a week for an hour to everyday will be huge. He's already talking so much.
I have no clue how to prepare him for all the changes. He's going on a bus for the first time ever then off to a new school with new kids. He's been going to the daycare he's at now since he was 14 months. He runs the place!! Knows all the teachers well and LOVES it there. We got him a book about school, a bus, etc. Bought him a school bus to play with. Talked to him about it, but I still feel like it really isn't sinking in till it happens. Will he be sad and cry? He's used to going to school, but it's a whole new place. No more daycare environment. A real, big school. AS much as I take the advise explaining it to him it's still going to be tough. I know eventually he'll adjust and love it.
Any other advise? Just an FYI... I took advise about talking to him about the Dentist when I posted questions here. As much as I talked and went in his mouth, toothbrush, etc... he screamed the moment they looked in his mouth. I know he'll make friends and love it. He loves new people and kids. I'm sure it's tougher on me, but I'm scared to see his face all confused when the bus pulls up on Tuesday. I'll bring my tissues... For ME!
