You wouldn\u2019t want to miss out on something important!<\/p>\n<p><strong>Underwear, Diapers, and Wipes<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>If your toddler still uses diapers, include them. Expect that your toddler would need about six to eight diapers each day, so plan accordingly. Also put in some diaper rash ointment or cream.<\/p>\n<p>If your child is still in the process of potty training, put in some training pants, apart from diapers.<\/p>\n<p>Accidents are usual for toddlers, so put in an extra pair of underwear for every outfit that you\u2019ll pack.<\/p>\n<p>When your child becomes older, like when they\u2019re in preschool, wipes will be used. Give the\u00a0preschool\u00a0a full container in the beginning, as well as a refill pack. A portable container in the diaper bag may be used as backup if needed.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Nap Time Items Such as Blankets, Sheets, and Pacifiers<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>If your child still uses a pacifier, send about extra to the\u00a0preschool\u00a0or after school care center. This is because toddlers typically lose their pacifiers. You won\u2019t like it if your child is searching for comfort and can\u2019t find it!<\/p>\n<p>Naps in\u00a0preschool\u00a0or at pre-K would usually take place on a mat or a cot. Check with your center, but some may ask you to bring a mat or maybe a blanket and a mat cover. Consider that accidents usually occur during naptime. So, send extra mat covers.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Extra Outfits, Outerwear, Bibs, and Painting Clothes<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Bring in 2 to 3 extra outfits that can be placed inside your toddler\u2019s cubby. You may see that your toddler goes through a lot of outfit changes each day. Place each outfit inside a resealable plastic bag, which can be used to bring wet or dirty clothes back home. Place extra underwear and socks too.<\/p>\n<p>At\u00a0preschool, send more than 2 bibs. Toddlers are starting to feed themselves at this pre-K age, which can get messy. Most bibs should be used just once and then laundered.<\/p>\n<p>Many\u00a0preschool\u00a0centers or after school programs know that outdoor activities are included, so your child will be brought outside to play once or twice each day. Always be prepared for a shower of rain, by getting one of those raincoats traveling pack for your kids.<\/p>\n<p>When your child gets a bit older, there will be art projects! This\u00a0preschool\u00a0activity is one of the most popular amongst kids, and unfortunately it can be one of the messiest. If your preschool center doesn\u2019t have it, think of sending a paint smock or an overall for your child to wear so they can protect their clothes during art time.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Packed Snacks and Lunch<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Some\u00a0preschool\u00a0ask parents to provide snacks, lunch, and drinks. If your\u00a0preschool\u00a0does this, ask them for a list of recommended foods and even banned foods. If allowed you may want to send your own sippy cup and plate, make sure to label it properly so that its clear and will not fade when they are washed.<\/p>\n<p>If you still have more questions or concerns on what to pack for\u00a0preschool, contact us at\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/kidsrkids.com\/valrico\/contact-us\/\">Kids &#8216;R&#8217; Kids Learning Academy of Valrico<\/a>.
