K Ready CoMo

K Ready CoMo We work with families to help them determine how prepared their child is for Kindergarten! Not only Kindergarten Readiness is a complex idea. Simmons great joy.

Nowadays, it's more than just knowing how to recite your 123's and ABC's! In fact, my husband's research cited 5 different areas of Kindergarten Readiness. Through our screening process, we'll assess your child's greatest strengths and weaknesses related to being ready for school. Not only that, but we'll offer you tips, tricks, strategies, and tools that you can use to ensure that your child's tr

ansition to Kindergarten is a smooth one. Your child entering school is one of the most important transitions in his/her life. Covid-19 may have impacted your child's preschool/daycare experience and, thus, his/her school readiness capabilities. Schedule a consultation with us today, and we'll partner alongside you to make sure that your child is K Ready! About Us

Happy November!

Our family started a "We are thankful for. . . " chart. Every night at dinner we start off by saying who or what we each are thankful for. I took a big piece of construction paper and divided it down the middle so each kid had their own column. Super simple and it is hung on the wall in our kitchen so we can see it. When our kids say who or what they are thankful for, we always ask "why" and add it to their side of the chart. This makes for a great dinner conversation!
