Back to kindergarten...

We’re back to routine... How was the goodbye this morning?!

For some of you, it was probably easy,

And for others, tears, crying, and great difficulty saying goodbye.

Keep in mind that after a long vacation,

Children definitely need an adjustment period. So be patient with them, show empathy.

It doesn’t matter that it’s the same teacher and the same kids. They’re struggling... Respect their feelings. Give them space to share, prepare them in advance for what will happen at kindergarten, how everything works, and who will pick them up at the end of the day.

Wishing you a smooth return to routine.

To wrap up, I’m sharing with you a lovely goodbye song you can teach the kids,

To make saying goodbye easier:

********************

"Hugging hands, a pleasant and good day

Hold close,

Slowly let go,

Nose to nose touching,

And the mouth whispers,

That we’ll meet again this afternoon..."
