Consultation “Mistakes of parents when adapting a child to preschool”

Mistakes in adapting a child to kindergarten, allowed by parents

I want to tell you about the most common mistakes that parents make when sending their child to kindergarten. Because of these mistakes, the baby, as a rule, develops a negative attitude towards the kindergarten, fears and anxieties, and adaptation is delayed for many months. It is important to know about these mistakes so that you do not make them and do not harm your baby.

Error #1. Disappearance of mother

When a mother comes to kindergarten with her child for the first time, the child is often relaxed and interested in what he sees. The fact is that he has not yet had the experience of being in the garden without his mother. That is why children often stay in the kindergarten quite cheerfully on the first day, and on the second and third days they already go with resistance. As we know, it is easy to attract the attention of a small child with something new and interesting. Therefore, the baby boldly moves away from his mother and is fond of new toys and children in the group. Most likely, he has already heard from his mother more than once that his mother will leave him in the group, but in his mind, while his mother is waiting for him in the corridor. Or maybe he forgot that mom was going to leave.

And here is what happens next. Mom is very happy that the child is interested in the game, and quietly, so as not to “scare” him, runs away without saying goodbye to the child and not informing him that he is leaving. Now imagine how a small child feels, whose mother suddenly disappeared for no one knows where, without saying goodbye, and it is not known when she will come and whether she will come at all. For a child, this is like getting lost in a huge supermarket. And even if the 10 kindest people calm the baby and offer him sweets and toys, he will be terribly scared, seized with fear and anxiety. Even if you have told your child many times that he will be alone in kindergarten, without his mother, never leave unnoticed.

The child has a feeling that now the mother can suddenly disappear at any moment of his life, without warning and without saying goodbye to him, that is, he can simply lose his mother. And he literally “sticks” to her both psychologically and physically for many months, afraid to lose sight of her. In many cases, the kindergarten simply has to be postponed for at least six months, because the child falls into hysterics at the slightest mention of the kindergarten, not to mention the fact that he goes there.

Error #2. Long stay

Some parents believe that it is better to leave the child immediately for half a day or a whole day, so that he quickly gets used to the children and the caregiver. This is a mistake. A visit to the kindergarten should begin gradually. There are different visiting schemes that psychologists recommend to follow. The general idea is this: first come and walk on the same playground where the group walks, then bring the child to the group for 30 minutes – 1 hour during free play activities and wait for the child in the corridor and then pick it up. Gradually, the child gets used to the children, and to the teacher, and to the environment. Then you can leave it alone for 1-2 hours, then from morning until lunch, then with lunch, then pick it up after the walk. After a while, leave for lunch and pick up, then leave for daytime sleep and pick up. Then leave for the whole day. There are no clear guidelines for how long each stage should last. You need to look at the well-being of the child and at your maternal intuition.

1-3 days – bring to 9.00 in the morning (after all the children have come, so that the child does not observe someone’s difficult separation from their mother), the child ate at home, the mother is with the child for the 1st hour, then the mother leaves, but is in the zone reach. After 3 hours of the child’s stay in the group, he is taken away.

4-5 days – the child can be left for a daytime sleep, immediately after the child wakes up, the parents pick him up.

starting from day 6 – the child can try to leave for a full day.

Error #3. Wrong daily routine

Many parents do not think about how the daily routine of the child today corresponds to the daily routine that will need to be followed when kindergarten begins. It will be extremely difficult for a child who is used to going to bed after 22.00 to wake up at 7 in the morning. And in the kindergarten, as a rule, you need to get up very early. Remember how your baby feels when he does not get enough sleep? He rubs his eyes, is capricious, does not understand what he wants, becomes whiny. Children whose parents did not transfer to the kindergarten mode of the day in advance are immediately visible in the group in the mornings in the first days. They rub their sleepy eyes, they are whiny and irritable, painfully perceive everything that happens around.

The way a child feels during the first days in kindergarten leaves an imprint on all his subsequent attitude towards this place. Remember the saying: You never get a second chance to make a first impression. This fully applies to kindergarten. In order for the child’s first experience in kindergarten to be colored with positive colors, do not be too lazy to transfer your baby to the correct mode in advance. Then he can wake up easily and go to the group in a good mood!

Error #4. Quick charges

This error is somewhat similar to the previous one. Since it is a pity for parents to wake up the baby and they want him to sleep as long as possible, they wake him up almost “back to back” by the time when he already needs to go to the kindergarten. As a result, the preparations turn out to be nervous, hasty, the mother does not have time to give the baby the attention and tenderness that he needs, especially when he is still basking in bed. The child only hears: “Come on soon”, “Come on faster”, “We are late for kindergarten”, “Let’s talk later”, etc. Often the baby in the morning still cannot think well and the mother gets annoyed, raises her voice and the whole morning turns out to be chaotic and conflicting. The mood is spoiled for everyone, and the child goes to the kindergarten in upset feelings, like the mother, who no longer has the moral strength to say some kind parting words.

Therefore, wake up yourself and wake up the baby in advance so that you have enough time for unhurried preparations so that you can pay attention to the baby while he is in bed – give a massage, stroke the legs and head, sing a song, tickle, kiss and other gentle words and actions. All this is so important for a good mood for both of you! Go to the kindergarten in advance, too, with plenty of time, so that you are not nervous on the way yourself and can set your child in a positive way.

Well, we have sorted out with you 4 common mistakes that you definitely won’t make now! I am sure that you will be able to gradually transfer your baby to a new daily routine, you will wake up and leave the kindergarten in advance, you will leave the child gradually in the group and will always inform him that you are leaving and say goodbye using the farewell ritual.

Recommendations for parents when children adapt to kindergarten conditions

• During the first days of visiting the kindergarten, you can be in a group together with your baby, communicate with children and staff.
• First, the child comes to kindergarten for 2 hours. If the stay does not cause negative emotions in the child, then the time of stay gradually increases.
• We welcome when parents get to know the employees in advance, talk about the individual characteristics of the baby and express their worries and expectations.
• If a child has difficulty parting with his mother, then it is desirable that at first his father or other family members take him to kindergarten, and his mother picks him up.
• Do not interrupt adaptation without a good reason, due to bad weather or a desire to sleep longer, as the adaptation period may be prolonged.

Adaptation is the adaptation of the body to a new environment, and for a child, a kindergarten is undoubtedly a new, still unknown space, with a new environment and new relationships. Adaptation includes a wide range of individual reactions, the nature of which depends on the psychophysiological and personal characteristics of the child, on existing family relationships, and on the conditions of stay in a preschool institution.

As a rule, until the age of 2-3, a child does not feel the need to communicate with peers – it has not yet formed. At this age, an adult acts for the child as a partner in the game, a role model and satisfies the child’s need for benevolent attention and cooperation. Peers cannot give this, because they themselves need the same. Therefore, a normal child cannot always quickly adapt to kindergarten, because he is attached to his mother, and her disappearance causes a violent protest of the child, especially if he is impressionable and emotionally sensitive.

If the child is the only one in the family, often gets sick, experiences fears, then his entry into the kindergarten should be gradual. First, you need to bring him to the group, introduce him to the teacher and the guys, look at the toys together, arouse interest in the new environment and return home. Then for several days you can bring the child for a short time and, depending on the behavior of the child, this time can be gradually increased.

Tips for parents to prepare their child
to attend kindergarten

• Convince yourself that your child needs kindergarten right now. At the same time, the main criterion for the readiness of the baby is the readiness of his parents. If one of the family members is against attending kindergarten, then this should be postponed until the parents unite in their desire.
• Tell your child what kindergarten is, why children go there, why you want him to go to kindergarten. But in no case do not make this event a problem, do not often talk about the upcoming change in his life. In general, all grandparents, nannies or just friends and acquaintances who say that kindergarten is evil, tears and sores, isolate for a while. Now your task is to positively set up the child for the coming changes.
• As you pass by the kindergarten, joyfully remind your child how lucky he is to be able to go here. In the presence of the baby, tell relatives and friends about the expected event, that you are proud that he was accepted into kindergarten.
• Tell your child in detail about the daily routine in kindergarten: what, how and in what sequence he will do. The more detailed your story is, and the more often you repeat it, the calmer and more confident the baby will feel when he goes to the garden. Children are frightened by the unknown, but when they see that the expected event happens as promised, they feel confident.
• Prepare your child to communicate with other children and adults: visit children’s parks and playgrounds with him, teach him to play in sandboxes, on swings. Go with him for holidays, for friends’ birthdays, watch how he behaves: he is shy, retires, conflicts, fights, or he easily finds a common language, contacts with peers, is drawn to communication, relaxed.
• Talk to your child about possible difficulties, who he can turn to for help, how he can do it. At the same time, it is important not to create illusions in the child that everything will be done on demand and exactly the way he wants. Try to play all these situations at home.
• Prepare with your child a “Joyful Box” with which he will go to kindergarten: put small toys (not very necessary, inexpensive, maybe homemade) there that your baby likes and will definitely make other children happy. Everyone benefits from this: the child is calmer, adapts faster, parents see that the baby feels confident entering the group, because he has in his hands a piece of the house and the warmth of the hands of his mother, who made these little things with him. Educators will also be happy to replenish the game material of the group. And one more plus: when a kid has something to play with, something to share with a friend, he will quickly get used to the new team, make friends with the guys.
• Teach your baby to get to know other children, to address them by name, to ask, not to take away toys, to offer their services, their toys to other children. The first days in kindergarten can be started with a walk together. Give your child the opportunity to come up, get acquainted with the children walking on the site. It is possible that your baby, having become interested, after a walk will be asked to join the group.
• The more friends (children and adults) your child has, the faster he will get used to kindergarten. Help him with this. Get to know other kids. Call them in the presence of your child by name. At home, ask your baby about Lena, Sasha, Seryozha. Encourage your child to ask other people for help.
• Play with your child homemade toys in kindergarten, where one of them will be the child himself. Watch what he does with this toy, what he says, help your child find friends for it and solve your child’s problems through it, focusing the game on positive results.
• And now a very important point – the better your relationship with teachers, with other parents and their children, the easier it will be for your child to get used to kindergarten and the more comfortable he will feel.
• Get to know the educators and teachers of the group in advance, tell about the individual characteristics of your child, what he likes, what he doesn’t like, what his skills and abilities are, what kind of help he needs, determine what methods of reward and punishment are acceptable for your child.
• Be indulgent and tolerant of others, there are no ideal people. But at the same time, be sure to clarify the situation that worries you. The main thing is to do it in a soft way or with the help of specialists.
• In the presence of the child, avoid critical remarks about the kindergarten and its staff. Never scare your child with kindergarten, otherwise you will have to reap these bitter fruits later. If you notice that the child is afraid of the teacher or does not trust him very much, try to talk about the teacher more often, praise him, ask about the child’s teacher, emphasizing how kind, beautiful, good, caring, etc.
• During the adaptation period, support the baby emotionally. Now you spend less time with him, so compensate for this with the quality of communication – hug and talk more often. Tell him: “I know that you miss me, that you are sad. When something new starts, it is always difficult at first, and then you get used to it and it becomes interesting. You’ll be fine.”
• Develop with your child a simple system of parting signs of attention, and it will be easier for the baby to let you go.
• Do not send your child to kindergarten just because you have another child, even if it makes life easier for you. Your eldest son or daughter will already feel that an invited guest has appeared in the house, and he will certainly interpret your decision as his exile, concluding that you prefer a newborn to him. Therefore, if you, while expecting a child, still decide to send the elder to kindergarten, do it in advance, before the baby arrives.
• The most important purpose of the kindergarten is to give the child the opportunity to communicate and play with peers. And no matter how good the kindergarten is, do not make an irreparable mistake – do not consider that it replaces the family.
• Remember that it can take up to six months for a child to get used to kindergarten. Calculate your strengths, capabilities and plans. It is better if during this period the family will have the opportunity to adapt to the peculiarities of the adaptation of their baby.

We all need to remember that for a child, a kindergarten is a new, yet unknown space, with a new environment and new relationships. Previously, the baby’s environment was limited to family members and sandbox friends, but now he has to spend the whole day in a big and noisy company. Separation from the mother and the presence of a large number of strangers around are the main sources of stress for the baby.

Recommendations for the days of the adaptation period, when you already leave the child in kindergarten

• Tell your child in a firm and confident tone that you have to go. Kiss him as if nothing is happening, and leave without delay.
• Demonstrate your confidence in the educator by addressing him with such words, for example: “I see you have a fun day today” (then you can hint to the educator that the child will now take up his favorite drawing, or modeling, or playing).
• Tell the child how he can determine the time when you should come for him (for example, right after dinner) and be sure to be precise when doing this.
• After saying goodbye, leave without turning around.
• Be patient. Remember, the baby is much harder than you. He needs your help and support.

We are all proud of the success of our children. And we know very well how sometimes it is not easy for them (and for us too) some or even most of them. But, perhaps, the most important and serious success in the life of a baby is the correct and most painless entry into the big “outer” world, which begins outside the family, apartment, house, sandbox in the yard.
