The alphabet song- helps with letter recgonition also start off with letters in his name so that when written he can recognize it
To count- early learning for math with number recognition
simple nursery rhymes- helps with emergent literacy skills because of rhyming words
Colors- primary colors
Read to him so that he can hear the way words sound and are pronounced as well as learn to have a love for books
another wonderful thing you can do is give him paper and pencil or crayon and just let him scribble. This helps him get comfortable with writing materials and writing

That he can share anything that happened at school , good or bad with you without the fear of punishment or shame from you. That when he shows you his work, it is the greates thing ever since the beggining of time.
Obviously you'll have to reflect these over time since he is just starting.
I might add too, to teach yourself to relax. It can be a rough spot to make it over, yet our civilization continues because we did.

I think social skills are the most important. Nearly every child will get the academics just fine...the 'abc's' and '123s'....etc...Expulsions are way too high for young children these days and I think it is due to, at least in part, the focus on academics to the detriment of learning social skills. how to sit at circle with hands to yourself, how to be friendly to all people, how to negotiate disappointment and frustration. If we focused on this in early childhood, we would have far less violence in our schools, and therefore much more learning would take place.

Read storys to him every day.Engage his imagination.Listen to his stories.Answer his questions in a forthright manner and in language that he understands.Have patience with his efforts to learn new things.Give him time and space to explore his environment.Be aware that he will always understand better than he can communicate.Speak clearly and plainly.When you imitate his baby talk ,you are only adding to the confusion.He is earnestly trying to imitate your speech.Be aware that he is a sponge and is absorbing all of your behavior,desirable and undesirable.Look after his basic needs as they arise.Look after yourself.

teach him to say please, thankyou, excuse me and simple manners like that. Also tell him about the proper behavior Ex: no hitting and waiting your turn.
