Preparing for Kindergarten
It happens as your sweet little baby turns from a toddler to a preschooler you realize that Kindergarten will happen soon and you wonder what does my child need to know for Kindergarten. You begin to research online for a Pre-K learning system and to see if there’s some secret to getting ready for Kindergarten and the truth it there’s no one way to prepare them for Kindergarten but there are lots of right ways to get them on the path to success.
How Can I Prepare My Child for Kindergarten?
The honest answer is to provide them with opportunities to explore, play, read, move and foster a love of learning. There’s a reason we use the terms PLAY. MAKE. LEARN. GO. often at The Educators’ Spin On It with our Preschool Activities. It’s the cycle of learning that we feel supports our children best as your start getting ready for Kindergarten.
What Does “Kindergarten Readiness” Mean?
There are some core learning concepts your child needs to practice frequently before Kindergarten to help with their Kindergarten Readiness Skills. Throughout your child’s weekly schedule they should experience activities focused on…
- Writing
- Letter Recognition
- Beginning Sounds
- Number Recognition and Counting
- Shapes and Colors
- Fine Motor Skills
- Cutting
- Reading Readiness
- Attention and Following Directions
- Social Skills
We believe that kids learn best through play and exploration. I love that Dilly’s Tree House focuses quite a bit on STEM Concepts to help better prepare our children for their futures too! Part of getting ready for Kindergarten is to find ways to ignite a love of learning with your child when it’s most important.
The best moments of learning are when you can build upon children’s natural curiosity about the world and their place in it.
This “Purposeful Inquiry,” is the heart of Dilly’s Tree House, awakens the scientist and the explorer in every child.
I’m excited to share with you about it and how in their subscription box program children learn to use their senses, ask questions, and find answers in a supportive, print-rich environment.
My daughter, who’s 6, reviewed this program with me and my nieces who are ages 2 and 4, we all have a blast learning and connecting with the characters together. I love that if you have siblings there’s an option to order the extra pieces needed.
Plus… How can you now LOVE this alligator which comes in your first box set! The kids instantly connected and embraced exploring their world.
