Ok...I'm a teacher. I knew this day was coming but it was still with mixed emotions that Connor started preschool this summer. I was so excited for him but what happened to my little baby? What's next...a girlfriend...college? I'm not ready for this! To say Connor was excited about his first day would be an understatement! He couldn't get in his classroom fast enough. I am very glad that he felt so happy and secure but I barely got a "Bye, Mommy!" Not that I wanted him to cling, but some small demonstration that he was going to miss me as much as I knew I would miss him would have been nice. But, he is well adjusted, happy, and secure so you can't beat that right?
I have to say that we are very happy with our choice of preschool! His teachers are loving and sweet. He loves them! We are pleased with that the "curriculum" is child centered and focuses on active exploration and PLAY!!! The materials in the class are outstanding because they encourage imaginative play and discovery. There are no worksheets here! Even the art projects focus on the process rather than the product. Also, Connor's very good friend Makena attends the same school which makes him very happy! His first question everyday is...Do I have preschool today?
