Debating whether I want my daughter to go to school . It would be three hours a day .... I don't see the point in that..... stuff I can easily teach her at home . Also with the baby coming right when she would be starting .... 😖 what do y'all think .
Not to mention, sending her away once the new baby arrives can be very difficult for her to understand and she might see it differently than you... That all being said, 3 hours isn't a full day so that it's one advantage of that program! I can see how some see that as a nice new adventure for her and getting acclimated... But ultimately, you know your child better than any of us 😘
Never feel pressured to send your child! A child that young does not need to go to school. Starting school later is becoming more common. My son has a June birthday and we will consider starting him at 6. Later starts often help to give them an advantage of doing much better in school. (I have a teaching degree and taught PreK & Kindergarten. So many parents are overly eager to send their kids off... Keep her with you in my advice 😘😘 and if you want any teaching ideas, I'd love to help you. I have boxes upon boxes of school supplies and curriculum 👍👍
Yes send her then you will have a lottle time for you and the baby and she will gain social skills with other kids.
I agree with the other comments about sending her to school. They all have great reasons why and to be honest it would be good for you to get a few solid hours with just you and the baby while your little lady gets to play with friends and fill her brain with more knowledge.
If you feel you can be consistent in teaching her then I would keep her home, but also sending her will give her the interaction with other classmates she can't get at home. It helps prepare for the years to come .
I think you should send her to be honest. It will get ready for actual school too!
Like he can't do his ABCs, he knows his numbers but he can't put them order. I've gotten his colors and shapes down but there's just certain things he needs to be working on, and I can't do it. But he's going for two days a week 3 hour days.
@korahleah_11, no she's 4 she doesn't turn 5 till sept 5 which doesn't meet the age requirement . I know she would be interacting with other kids .. that's why I'm stuck in between wanting her to go and not
@natalienavarro9512 I feel you if it's not that many hours a day I wouldn't worry about it hun don't beat yourself up about it
She not in Kindergarten yet?
& also, my son is 3 but he's going to pre school because I just had a baby and teaching him is a lot harder then I thought it was. And he is also going to interact with other kids. I think it would benefit her.
@twins1987, no only those hours , and it would be good for her to have another year or so with her sister . Idk I'm stumped I don't want to feel like I'm being a bad mom not sending her but I worked with prek and it's easy stuff I can teach
I know I went through the same with one of my kid's and omg it's like as soon as I dropped him off I was turning right back around to pick him up @natalienavarro9512
I'm homeschooling mine
