after I leave my daughter's Montessori school I usually hang around in the premises to see the kids play in the play ground. it's been 4 weeks now since my 4 yr old started her school. Last week when I left her I was in my car watching her from outside which she doesn't know. I was there a while and it broke my heart that she was playing by herself and trying to talk to one of the teacher. Before she goes in she usually pick a flower from the front lawn and give it to one of the teacher. She's outgoing and love people, but don't know why she's not playing with other kids just yet.

Ask her who she wants to invite to a little girl`s party.Invite 3 or 4 for a afternoon slummer party .
She probably feel more comfortable trying to talk to others in her home and mebay that`s the ice breaker.

Or you can contact another child's Parent and invite her for a play time .
good luck!!!!

Maybe she is just more mature than the other girls her age. I wouldn't see any problem in it. I was like that when i was little. I didn't find it fun to play with the other girls my age because the stuff that they were doing bored me, and I always found myself trying to tell them what to do. So I realized that i wasn't having fun so I usually just sat around and talked to the teachers. Now that I am in high school I still think that i am a little more mature that alot of the other people at school, but i get along with everyone. I am a very outgoing person and i have alot of friends. I have found several other people at school that are like me and i hang around with them alot.
I don't think you should worry. I mean, I have never even had a dettention and not hanging out with the normal kids at school has helped me alot. I get great grades and I am not shy. I talk to adults alot. And i can have really intellegent conversations. So your daughter will probably turn out like that.

It just takes some time for some children to "warm up" to a new surrounding. 4 weeks seems like it is a long time, but for some children, it is not long enough to feel comfortable in a new setting. Talk to her teachers.... does she warm up after being at the center for a while? Does she get involved in activities? Do the teachers encourage her to talk to other children? I bet that she gets more comfy as the day goes on, and the more she goes to preschool, the better she will get at being comfortable in the presence of other children.

This isn't all that unusual for children her age. I teach High School level, but as part of my education I taught pre school for a semester.
Though it has been 4 weeks, I wouldn't "worry" about this for at least another month, maybe longer. Then if the behavior continues, check with her teacher about her social skills within the classroom then, with the help of school staff (hopefully) you can plan out our next step it necessary.

Blesings to you, I have had this experience its tears at your heart.
It does take a while for children to make friends sometimes, ask the teacher to make a point of pairing her up with other children and let them know of your concerns, in the meantime try to encourage her not to be disheartend join some external classes of her choice which will buid her confidence and spend more time with friends children, and give her a party on her birthday inviting some shcool friends..

Maybe she's shy, I was extremely shy as a child in elementary school and it wasn't nice for me at all. Try to talk to her about making friends more or let her throw a party with lots of fun kiddie games and let her invite kids from her class, she might make more friends that way.

Some kids just take awhile to adjust, especially if they are not used to being around other children. Adult contact she is used to is my guess so that is why she has such an easy time talking to them and not to the other kids. She will come around.

She may not be ready to hang around with other kids yet. She just needs some time to get used to it. Just give her time she will come around eventually

my sister went through the same thing with two of her three children...this is what her childs teacher told her...be patient...some kids are shy....it's sometimes hard for children to connect to other children especially if they are only children or their siblings aren't around the same age....try mommy and me play groups or even taking her to the park by herself and encouraging her to play with others there....good luck
