Shena Etulain: just teach her about strangers and do those small things like where they ask to get in their car saying their parents are hurt. and see if she chooses the right decision. and also do some crafts with her and read some stories that have morals meaning the main thing of the story . Example: You cant always get what u want

Loriann Carrigan: I think preschool is just a way to get kids ready for kindergarten; they'll develop social skills, get to know other kids and make friends, and learn things like simple math and the alphabet.Personally, I'd think it's better to let her attend preschool.

Bryan Avinger: Well it is good that you are going to work with her at home, but there are somethings that you cannot teach. One of the most important things that children learn from preschool are social skills with same age peers and how to act in a school setting. ! These are only things that children can learn in a preschool s! etting. It is good if you daughter plays with other children now, but it is not the same as interacting with other children in a school setting. I would suggest signing her up for the library story time, so she can interact with other children and adults. She will also have a lot of fun with this. Then the stuff that you do work with her on, should be hands-on and fun. Refrain from using flash cards, because they are not the best method to teach. For example work on the letters by finding them in a magazine and make a letter collage. Then find pictures of things that start with that letter. Not only will she be working on letters but she will be using fine motor skills necessary for writing such as cutting, glueing, etc. Games like chutes and ladders are great for learning the concept of number. Do lots of cutting, this is something that takes practice, and is a very important fine motor skill. Let her practice "writing" which will help her with holding the pencil! s. Read lots of books to her. Sing songs. Maybe have a calendar and you can talk about the days of the week, month, year. You can talk about the weather. Let her have fun with this stuff, or she will not really be learning....Show more
