Countdown to Kindergarten: Making A Successful Transition

Building: 46-3189 (Brain & Cognitive Sciences)

 

Presenter: Deborah Weinstock-Savoy, Ph.D.; Psychologist and Consultant

That small step across the kindergarten threshold is actually a giant leap for each child into the world of “Big Kid School.” And, of course, this life change can be just as big for parents, too! However, learning about the kindergarten transition can help parents cope and be more helpful, calm, and positive for their children. During this interactive workshop, we will:

  • Review the developmental challenges that kindergarten presents
  • Strategize how to help children of all temperaments face the kindergarten transition with comfort and confidence
  • Receive practical information and tools for managing the many details of this new educational adventure
