Is it proper time to send to preschool to a child who is 26 months old?

Question

I have one baby girl.She is a little sensitive and emotional.

She has got little social .Do i need to send her to preschool or she needs parents love unless she becomes ready to go to the school at the age of four

Answer 1

SHE WILL NOT REALLY LEARN MUCH. MY SON GOES TO DAYCARE/PRESCHOOL AND HAS FOR A YEAR HE IS ALMOST 3 AND HAS REALLY JUST STARTED LEARNING. HE ALSO IS A LITTLE UNSURE AROUND OTHER PEOPLE BUT HE DOES GOOD AT SCHOOL I WOULDNT SAY SCHOOL HAS HELPED AT ALL ITS JUST A MUST FOR A WORKING MOM

Answer 2

There's no need to send a 2 year old to preschool.  

Research has shown that 2 yr olds in daycare show more aggresion later in life.  Plus, why would she learn more in a class of 14 or more kids with only 1 or 2 adults than she would one on one with Mommy or Daddy?

Keep that baby home!

Answer 3

Find a preschool you and she both like, and sign her up to go part time.  Most preschools have 2 day a week programs for 2 year olds (like tuesday and thursday morning from 10-12, for example).

She might really enjoy it, if she's ready.

Answer 4

Mothers on both side of the spectrum will give you thumbs up and thumbs down.  I personally feel and again this is just what I think... It is perhaps wise to start a child fairly young to develop social skills and communication skills from many different source's.  Be that it Grandma, Grandpa, Sister, Brother, Aunt or Uncle.  Day care, Church Sunday School.  Besides, wouldn't it be so nice when you can have an emotional break away from one another?  I know that sounds selfish but its  not.  Its quality time to yourself to Calgon yourself away during those times to distress.

Answer 5

Try to wait one more year and then ask the preschools in your area at what age you can admit your daughter.

Answer 6

send her to preschool. it will help her. It helped my son. He hated to be around people unless it was mom or grandparents. it has helped him so much and he is getting smarter and smarter.

Answer 7

YES.

Answer 8

There are many options.  First, she needs more than just her parents.  She needs to interact with other children her own age.  You can do this by sending her to daycare part time.  I know people have a beef with daycare, but it's good for social interactions.  Take her to the park with other kids.  Take her to some play area like Toys R Us where they have other kids playing.  Join a group of mothers and children.  Get to know your neighbors with kids. You have many options.  You also have to play with her and teach her.

If you want to send her to preschool, I think she has to be at least three and has to be potty trained.  Part time daycare can have the equivalent if it's a good one.  They teach too.

Answer 9

I think you need to wait. I didn't even go to preschool and I'm glad. I probably would think are her friends going to preschool (you don't want her to be lonely)

Answer 10

she will learn more if you send her to preschool but that's your decision

Answer 11

well it will be a good idea but i dont think they will axccept her yet and i think she also needs lots of parents love

Answer 12

If you want to.. there is no requirements that she must right now

she is barely figuring out about toilet training and communications.

I wouldn't send her now, maybe next year ;-)

Answer 13

I would try play groups and other social activities, before sending her to preschool. If possible, take her to a library story-hour or set up a time for her to play with other kids her age. Depending upon where you live, you might be able to find another type of social activity with a Rec center, church, or school.
