I'm from Queensland Australia and next year the schools are starting prep instead of preschool. I was just wanting help getting my little one ready for it. As it is a all day schooling from 9 to 3.

I would say teach her the alphabet, numbers etc. Show her maps get her familiar with everything they'll teach. Call your school and ask them for ideas. Good luck!!

A good way might be to look into story-telling. Find short stories your child may like with a theme around seperation or independence, or something similar. You can read the story at bed time or any other time, and use the opportunity to "compare" the hero of the story to a little boy or girl who goes off to school, and the courage it takes, etc etc you get the idea. Good luck.

i think u can buy him some stoybooks and read it to him. Doing of some preschool activitybook will also help him! Or u can also grt him some pc games recarding animals, words, or even science about the environment. If he cannot cope with them, then i suggest u can bring him to zoos. this can be good, as firstly he can learn about animals and secondly, he can relaxed and have a fun day there! Hope this tips are useful for u!

Pre school requires that the child can write his own name, tie shoe laces (I got mine shoes with velcro instead), be able to go to the bathroom by themselves, wipe their own nose, things like that.Some basic manners are also required. It is easy to teach counting by getting the kid to count with you when cooking or taking the stairs or buying like 6 apples. Read to them alot and make it fun. It is a full on day for a four year old so expect him or her to be very tired for a while.

take him to visit the school..let him get familiar with the teachers and the surroundings...let him see what they do there first hand and ask lots of questions. The more comfortable he gets now..during short visits with you there...he will adjust quickly when he attends.
