childergarten entry – The first day in kindergarten

Starting kindergarten is something special for every child. Some children can hardly wait and look forward to this day.

Entering kindergarten – the first separation

Especially if there are older siblings and the kindergarten is already a familiar place because the children are dropped off there in the morning.

Things are different if the rooms and teachers are completely unfamiliar, the child has never attended a daycare center before and is therefore separated from the parents for a longer period of time for the first time when starting kindergarten. Plan two to four weeks for this first phase of the transition. Do not leave your child alone at the beginning, accompany them, explore the rooms and toys with them. This will help your child to build trust in the new environment and the teachers.

Starting kindergarten should be remembered as a positive experience, which strengthens the child's self-confidence and helps him or her in all new situations later on.

What else you should consider when entering kindergarten

Talk about starting kindergarten at home. There are some great books on the subject, but it's best to find out about them a few months in advance and read them in the evening before bed.

Avoid saying things like: “You are now three years old and have to go to kindergarten.” Instead, say: “You can go to kindergarten now.”

When entering kindergarten, it is important to respond to your child's wishes. If he or she only wants to stay for one or two hours, speak to the teacher and pick up your child at the agreed time.

In any case, educational staff will gradually increase the number of periods of stay, which makes the separation easier for the child as it remains manageable. Starting kindergarten is usually much more problem-free than expected.

Parents usually worry too much and the child is fully integrated into the kindergarten routine after just two weeks.
