However, you shouldn\u2019t let your prep work be something you save for the last minute. Here are some tips on how to take this transitional period one phase at a time.<\/p>\n<h3>A Few Weeks Out: Stock Up on Supplies<\/h3>\n<p>This may seem like a given, but stocking up on any and all required school supplies should happen a few weeks before returning to school. Don\u2019t wait until the last minute to make a mad dash to the department store. Not only could prices hike in the final moments before classes begin, but the options may be limited as stock sells out.<\/p>\n<h3>The Week Before: Getting Your Child Comfortable<\/h3>\n<p>Even though this isn\u2019t your child\u2019s first time in preschool, it\u2019s important for them to get reacquainted with their surroundings. Most preschools host open houses in the weeks leading up to classes, so be sure to walk the building a few times to make sure the environment is familiar before you leave them on the first day. This can also be a good confidence booster for your little one. Be sure to talk to your preschooler about their worries concerning returning to school. Don\u2019t let them dread this important, positive change in their lives. Also, the week before is a great time to start using an early, school-appropriate bedtime.<\/p>\n<h3>The First Day Back: Time to Launch<\/h3>\n<p>It\u2019s go time! Let your child choose their own weather- and school-appropriate outfit for the first day of preschool. It\u2019s a great way to ease the tension while encouraging him or her to express themselves. Plan to spend a little more time at the preschool than usual. Allow for fifteen to thirty minutes of hangtime while you make sure the transition is comfortable. Finally: don\u2019t linger. Drawing out your exit can make the separation anxiety more intense. Instead, leave with a positive and upbeat \u201cgoodbye,\u201d ensuring your child that you\u2019ll see them when preschool is over in just a few hours.<\/p>\n<p>There are countless factors to consider when looking for the right preschool.
