Transitioning from home to preschool can be challenging for young children.

Facilitating a smooth transition from the home to preschool involves:
✅ Preparation
✅ Establishing routines
✅ Providing emotional support to help children adjust to their new environment.

Let's Get Ready Campaign have published a list of books to Help Your Child with Their Transition from Home into Pre-School.
