Their needs
It is important for parents to know what their
preschooler needs to prepare for kindergarten
and the world outside their homes. When you
enroll your little one to a preschool, you need to
make sure that it has everything that will help in
developing your child socially, intellectually and
emotionally. Here are some of the things that
preschoolers need to adjust in their new
environment:
 Encouragement from parents and teachers to
explore and learn.
 A clean and bright preschool environment
that makes them feel comfortable the
moment they step in.
 A neat and tidy classroom that has every
item in an appropriate place that will make it
easy for the kids to find what they want.
 Social interaction with large and small
groups of other little kids.
 Hands-on experience with toys and other
items that teach them something new.
 Toys and games that develop problem
solving and manipulative play skills.
 Equal balance of indoor activities and
outdoor playtime.
 Learning to develop their intellectual,
cognitive and motor skills which will be
required as they enter kindergarten.
Parents and other adults in preschool
children’s lives need to encourage the little ones
to be curious, think on their own and be creative.
