The first day of preschool is a milestone filled with excitement and emotions. 

While your child may feel nervous, you can take steps to make the transition smoother.

Talk About Preschool Early

Explain what preschool is, why it’s fun, and what they’ll do each day.

Visit the School Together

A tour or even walking by the building helps it feel familiar and safe.

Practice Independence

Encourage tasks like putting on shoes, hanging up coats, or washing hands.

Build a Goodbye Routine

Create a short, loving ritual (a hug and “See you soon!”) to ease transitions.

Send Comfort Items

A small stuffed animal or photo can help children feel secure.

At Miss Honey’s, we make every first day filled with warmth and excitement.

Schedule a tour today and let’s make your child’s preschool journey a joyful one.
