Basic Skills
The first kindergarten weeks will be much easier on your child if he/she:
- Can take care of his or her own needs, such as going to the bathroom, washing hands, and dressing.
- Can adapt to different social situations, such as being in a classroom with a teacher and other kids without a parent present.
- Has developed fine motor skills, such as cutting with scissors and other crafts.
