My child attends preschool or a Mothers Day Out program. Shouldn they be teaching my child the skills they need to be ready to start school?
A2. We might hope so, but who can ever be sure. As parents we can’t afford to default our responsibility to be sure our kids are becoming as prepared as possible for school and for life. So, whatever they are doing in day care or other programs, you can do more and you should! Most kids today attend some type of a preschool program before starting school. Yet many children still arrive at kindergarten less prepared than they could be for maximum success.
