The Preschool Decision — Little Wonders

The decision to send a child to preschool can be fraught with questions––when should I send them, where should I send them, what should I look for, etc. Parents with younger children easily get swept up in the frenzy of feeling that they need to make a decision earlier than necessary. Not every child is ready for preschool at the same age, nor is every family suited to the same type of programs. The issue of preschool has become unnecessarily stressful for parents of young children.

Why send children to preschool?

Parents send their children to preschool for various reasons. Generally children are sent to preschool for an opportunity to learn to share, follow instructions and begin the foundation for learning that will prepare them for kindergarten. Preschools generally provide young children with a variety of rich experiences and socialization that isn’t readily available in our homes. During the ages of 3-5, children thrive on being in social groups and enjoy working together collaboratively, which facilitates a great deal of learning. The structure within the preschool environment, along with the opportunity for play, free choice and socialization, is the foundation for helping children become life-long learners. Preschools are great environments for helping children learn language and cognitive skills, develop curiosity, enhance their motor skills, and boost their pre-math and literacy skills.

Although preschool is an important experience for a young child, the “when” and “where” is a very individual decision. Not every child benefits from a preschool experience at the same time. Most children begin preschool at 3 years of age, when they naturally become less egocentric and more capable of group activities. Some very social and independent children may be ready for preschool sooner.

When do I send my child to preschool?

What are the signs that a child is ready for preschool? A child ready for preschool will:

  • Separate from their parent easily and enjoy socializing with other children.

  • Have enough language skills to communicate his/her needs and desires.

  • Be able to take direction from another adult.

  • Be beyond the egocentricity of a toddler; able to relate to others, be interested in others, and give and take.

  • Show interest in a variety of activities.

  • Attend to a task for a reasonable amount of time. Attention span is still short in preschool, but has definitely grown from toddlerhood.

With these skills, a child can be successful in most school environments with or without their parents.

Where do I send my child to preschool?

If you feel you and your child are ready for preschool, it is important to consider your family’s needs as well as your child’s temperament in making the decision of “where.” We are so fortunate to have such an incredible variety of options on the Peninsula. Start by having a conversation with your partner about your goals and family needs. Next, consider your child’s temperament. Children who are very middle-of-the-road in their temperament traits may adapt well to a variety of programs, but more extreme temperament traits should be taken into consideration when choosing your child’s preschool. For example, children who are very sensitive and cautious or slow-to-warm, may do better in a quieter, more organized environment with fewer children. Children who are very high-activity temperamentally will benefit from a program with a great outdoor area they are able to utilize often throughout the day. Children who find adapting to changes challenging may do better in an environment with limited transitions. With programs that support their temperament traits, children will gain confidence, feel good about themselves and naturally grow and learn more.

Good preschools provide children with rich experiences that give them skills, information and attitudes that prepare them for the primary grades and life. Early education and preparation for future school experiences should focus on stimulating curiosity, building responsibility, and encouraging social and problem solving skills. Preschool is generally not a place to learn academics. The importance of developmentally appropriate practice cannot be underestimated. In fact, one long-term study comparing an academic program to a play-based or developmental program showed that children in the academic program actually did worse in school as they got older. The brain is “rigged” to learn things at certain times, and to build on these blocks as it matures. Pushing young children to memorize certain facts early does not mean they have committed these ideas to memory.

In this area, parents typically start investigating options about a year before they want their children to attend preschool. After talking with your spouse and considering your child and daily circumstances, begin by contacting schools that fit your needs. Ask about fees, admission policy, philosophy and curriculum. Once you’ve narrowed down your choices, schedule your visits. Most preschools run open houses and/or visits during the winter and have registration periods in early spring. If possible, visit schools you really like with your child and see how she responds to the classroom, the teacher and the activities.

Here in our area, we commonly choose between play-based programs, Montessori programs and/or co-op type preschools. While all are somewhat different, they are equally beneficial. The key is visiting each program and evaluating for yourself whether it would be the right place for your child. It is beneficial to visit a variety of programs, and with your child in mind, get a feel for the program and where your child might feel most comfortable. An early childhood program should honor each child’s timetable for growth in each of these areas: physical, emotional, social and cognitive. Preschool should be a place for children to learn how to be with other children and adults and to gain some basic school-routines, such as sitting in circle time, cooperating with others to work on a task and moving from one activity to another. Most importantly, it should be a place to continue working on social, emotional and problem solving skills.

If you are feeling your child is not quite ready, or you are not ready for this move, consider some other options. It’s important to swim against the tide of societal pressure to put your child into preschool earlier and earlier. Research has proven that pushing children can be detrimental. Many of the skills learned at preschool can be learned by making sure your child is getting opportunities for socialization and play by participating in a regular playgroup, going on different types of outings and taking art, music or gym classes. Often our children are over-scheduled out of a desire to make sure they don’t fall behind. They actually benefit more from time with you and one or two activities a week. One of the reasons many parents choose to do a second or third year at Little Wonders is that it offers the child the opportunity for socialization and play, while allowing the child time to participate perhaps in another activity during the week. The other valuable component for the parents is the continuing parent education and support during the particularly challenging “trying twos”.  We continually get feedback from our parents about how valuable our parent education is. Parents love having this extended community, continuing to build friendships and building their toolbox of parenting tips! Experiences during the 2-year-old year are different those the first year. Children benefit from a variety of art and other materials that enhance their creativity. They also benefit from science and games. Possibly the biggest change is in their friendships. Although the majority of children continue parallel play, you’ll often see friendships begin to bud. Children will come to school wanting to play with a specific friend. The classroom and overall experience is very different the second year and can be just what the child needs to build their confidence and social skills for subsequent successful preschool years! If you have any doubts, talk to any Little Wonders parent who has returned for the second year!

You may ask, “What other activities should I do with my child?” Here is a short list of activities that provide your children the opportunity for socialization as well as fostering their other interests:

  • Local parks and recreation programs

  • Tiny Treks

  • Music classes

  • Gymnastics

  • Coyote Point Toddler Tuesdays

  • Discovery Museum

  • Palo Alto Junior Museum

  • Swimming

  • Consistent small playgroups

If you do feel your child is ready for preschool, here is a list of some local programs. Most of these have Open Houses starting in November, and continuing through February.

Prices for (rented) housing: sfbayarea_ru — LiveJournal

? Cancel it is not very realistic to find a washing machine inside ? I study it (craigslist) carefully and regularly, and I got the feeling that such apartments may exist, but there are only a few of them. So far, I have not been able to see a single one – they either do not respond to requests, or send scams in response. Should I be patient and wait, or does it still make sense to move the search to the south or southeast? If so, what do you think is better in terms of traffic congestion, no infrastructure, safety, and, very importantly, the relative coolness of the climate (or at least the non-exhausting heat) – South Bay or south East Bay represented by Fremont? If SB, what part of it? Schools are irrelevant for me, I work mostly from home, so geographically I’m only interested in the ease of getting to, say, San Francisco and sometimes San Jose. Thank you very much in advance!
