Preschool Is Messy
When Your Child Comes Home Messy
Red paint in the hair? Blue paint on the jeans? Sand in the shoes? Peanut butter on a favorite shirt? White socks that look brown? Sleeves a bit damp?
YOUR CHILD PROBABLY......
Worked with a friend
Solved a problem
Created a masterpiece
Negotiated a difference
Learned a new skill
Had a great time
Developed new language skills
YOUR CHILD PROBABLY DIDN'T.......
Feel lonely
Become bored
Do repetitive tasks that are too babyish
Do worksheets that are too easy
Do sit down work that is discouraging
Young children really learn when they are actively involved in play.....not when someone is talking to them. There is a difference between "messy" and "lack of care." Your caregiver made sure your child was fed warm, offered new skills and planned fun things to do because that's how young children learn!
Please remember to dress your children in clothes that can get dirty and shoes that are appropriate for running and playing outside. Rainboots, raincoats and an extra set of clothing can be kept at preschool all year for those very wet and muddy days!
