The First Day Of School

Tomorrow is the first day of back-to-school for many children and it's also the first day of school for others. My youngest is starting grade two, but I have two nephews starting kindergarten this year and speaking with their parents reminded me of how nervous I was on my son's first day of school.

The first day of kindergarten can be very hard for both parents and children. In order to make it easier for your child get them excited for school. Let them pick out their clothes for the day and get them to pick out what's in their lunch. Now that they are prepared to go to school when they get their they might still be nervous. In order to help them get excited about being at school talk to them about all the fun things they are going to be doing. When it's time to leave them give them a high five and tell them they are a big kid now and act excited for all the fun things they are going to be doing. After you leave them, then you can cry because your baby is now grown up......I know I did.
