Talk About Starting Preschool

Engage your child in conversations about preschool long before their first day. Discuss all the fun and exciting things they will get to do at Growing Kids, such as making new friends, playing with toys, participating in art projects, and learning through age-appropriate activities. By doing so, you can help them develop a sense of anticipation and enthusiasm!

Read Books About Preschool

Reading books about preschool can help your child build an understanding and familiarity with the concept. Choose entertaining books that depict preschool experiences and highlight the joys of learning and socializing with peers. This activity will stimulate their imagination, answer questions they may have, and create excitement about their own preschool journey.

Play Pretend Preschool

Children learn through play, and by pretending to play preschool, your child can develop a positive association with the idea. Set up a small area in your home with toys, books, and art supplies similar to what they may find in preschool. Encourage them to take on the role of a student or teacher and engage in activities that mimic what they will experience at Growing Kids. This is also a great excuse to spend more time with your little one!


By following these steps, you can help your child get excited about starting this new chapter in their life. Contact Growing Kids with any questions you may have, and schedule a tour of one of our Northern Indiana preschool locations today!
