We will be looking at that book! I know each week will get better, as it already is beginning to. Big changes for a little person. xmarcihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00099472359744310079noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6238142534312263894.post-22454200911808713392012-10-17T13:11:42.694-06:002012-10-17T13:11:42.694-06:00Thanks Jo!

That really helped my son. He is 3.5 and so things are a bit easier now (though we still read the book occasionally...) but when he was younger my husband and I did the following: <br />-always kept our voices super positive when we talked about school. we would honk the car horn when we'd pass it and shout "hi school!" we would talk about his teacher and his friends at meal times together. <br />-don't linger over goodbyes. even now our drop-off routine is quick, i rarely go far into the classroom. i hang around at pick-up to explore his classroom and playground and catch up with his teachers.<br />-we talk through the whole day over and over again and always in a positive, matter of fact voice. eg. today is a school day, mama will drop you off and then has to work but i'll be back after nap to get you and then we'll...<br /><br />My son now goes full time because he was really ready for it. Friends with children in part-time programs have had a harder time because it isn't as much as a routine so the adjustment period can be a lot longer. Hope it works out for you!

Again it takes time but they do love each other so. Very best wishes JxxAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05659392802742964854noreply@blogger.com
