Getting Ready for School - Part 3

Things your child may be worried about~~~
Talk to your child about these things, walk through their day and let them how everything will work. Get them prepared before they have a chance to get too anxious. 
How will I get to school? (riding a bus or carpool)
Explain the route (picking up other children), how they will get off the bus and get into the school and to their classroom. 
Make sure they know how to act on the bus or in the car.
What if I miss you? 
Let your child know that it’s ok to miss you. You will miss them too! You are both doing your job – their job is to go to school just like mommy and daddy have to go to work. (Or mommy has to go to the grocery store or clean the house). Everyone has a job to do and their “job” is to go to school and have fun!
