      I’d love a school meal video! My daughter is 2 and she’s in daycare full-time. The lunches we have to pack have to be no heat lunches, which makes it a little more challenging. Love your vids!!❤

    Former LA preschool teacher here and these are great! I also always tell caregivers IT’S OKAY TO CRY! Yes the caregivers! And most of them do lol and it’s so sweet🤍 It’s ok for you and your kiddo to have a teacup first few weeks. Most kids starting preschool/daycare are covid babies who have never been in the care of anyone else so sending them to be in someone else’s care IS A BIG DEAL! If you need to sit in the car for 20 minutes and sob, you do that! It’s a big change for EVERYONE and we appreciate you trusting us with your most precious gift :) ♥️

      Thank you so much. I really needed to hear this. I was just thinking about sending my 2 year old to daycare to interact with other kids because he still doesn't talk.. It's a big step that I'm thinking about.

      Ok I’m crying at your comment!
      My LO just did his settling sessions over summer and was ok for the most part, but hated the last one (turns out he was getting a bug and feeling unwell but I didn’t know at the time). He’s had terrible separation issues since.
      He does his first full day tomorrow and I’ve already told them I’ll be there for 90 mins or so until he’s settled. It’s so sad, but I do want him to have the opportunity to develop the social skills he will learn there before he gets to big school ❤

    New Zealand mum and preschool teacher here. We definitely do nap times if your Pepe/baby still has naps during the day, once baby gets to about 4 or 5 we normally find that they don’t want naps when at preschool and then by 5 when they start primary school there is no nap times.

    • @sapphirestorm9874

    So greatful to live in Vienna. They have THE BEST support for parents. If you get into a public preschool it’s around 70€ per month and kids get 3 meals and fruit and water/tea whenever they want. Private are even better cause food is not delivered but freshly cooked there, just more expensive (still not over 300€/month). All you need is some extra clothes for outside and if they get dirty.

    For the birthday gift bags, I have to be careful because we have religious dietary requirements, so I do:
    - Gift bags from shein/Temu
    - Vegan gummies (I get a large pack and put 5 pieces in mini cellophane baggies)
    - A mini colouring book (get a 12 pack from party stores or online)
    - Mini pack of colours (I buy the cheap 50 pack of crayons from the dollar store and put 2-3 crayons in each bag.
    Nice and simple, no hazards, careful with the dietary requirements

    As a prek teacher I also have a love-hate with gift bags for bday parties. Some parents think that it’s a free for all & will give students snacks or candy containing allergens like peanuts. They will give them toys, food, sometimes clothing items (socks, headbands). Sometimes they will bring (without telling us!) McDonald’s AND pizza AND cake AND snacks SND juice. Sometimes they bring cake that has almonds as a topping & they think “just talking it off” is okay. Bday parties are sooooo stressful & soooo distracting for the kids. I wish there was a rule that didn’t allow bday parties in school.

      Where I live it’s forbidden to take any sugar inside the preschool. They do a singing for the kid that has his or her birthday and do a little crown with the name of the child but no sugar or gifts are allowed in.

From the outside the ball look like plastic because it had a thin cover

  • @Brook.Gonzales
    @Brook.Gonzales Год назад

    YES YES to the independent play and social skills! (Former preschool teacher here) Most of us are capable of handling children with a lot of separation anxiety but it is definitely a lot more challenging than if your child doesn’t “know” all their educational skills. That’s what we are here for, to teach your littles! But what makes a huge difference is working with your child to learn how to play next to you and well with other children. Most kids are a bit shy at first and that’s super normal! But it definitely makes a huge difference when they have had time to grow that skill of independence and confidence in themselves.🤍

    Q: re the lunchbox, can you put ‘warm’ food in 1 section and ‘cool’ food (prob not cold food next to warm right?) in a different section or would the warm food make the whole lunch end up warm?
    Or would it even keep the warm food warm?
    Or if I got this do you think I would still need a separate thermos-? Ty!!!🫶🏼

    • @melissabereading

    I find it crazy you guys can pack nuts to Pre-School.
    In Australia all childcares, Pre-School and even schools are nut free. All childcares are egg free too. Not sure about the others.
    Though to be fair Melbourne Australia has the highest amount of allergies in the world. As nuts and eggs most common allergies makes sense it's banned.
    Wait they do put the soiled clothes into a bag? This is considered a hygiene and safety issue here. They would 100% put those clothes into some sort of bag.

    Why are we giving gifts to every kid in class when it’s your kids birthday. That makes no sense. That makes me think of everyone gets an award. No, why are we building expectations that are unrealistic of the real world. Yes we should have fun and magical moments for our kids. And also making them think they should get gifts every time somebody else has a Birthday, why.
