More information

An online workshop that prepares parents and children for the transition to municipal kindergarten
Under the guidance of Revital Henig Schnir
MA educational consultant and preschool parent facilitator, married to Yair and we have five wonderful children between the ages of four and 13.

 

The order of the lessons:

  • Introduction to the workshop - who am I and what will we have in the workshop?
  • Lesson 1 - transitions in general, types of transitions, regression in transitions, how regression is expressed, when there is regression and how best to treat regression.
  • Lesson 2 - How do we know when my child's behavior is okay and when it is excessive and I should take action?
  • Lesson 3 - How can I help my child with the transition from today? Both preparation before the move and helping my child following the experiences he had in kindergarten.
  • Lesson 4 - Meetings around my child's kindergarten. My encounter with myself, mine with my child, my child in transition and my child's encounter with the environment. How important and meaningful these meetings are!
  • Lesson 5 - The four most important principles in a farewell and homecoming ceremony.
  • Lesson 6 - conclusion and summary - what did we learn in the workshop?

 

I wrote here as a gift some principles and ideas from the workshop that can help you create a good and empowering separation for you and the child:
Preparation - emotional preparation (such as my personal example of transitions I had and how I dealt with them) and technical (such as knowing the way to kindergarten and how to eat from the lunch box) will help separation and easier adaptation in kindergarten.
Have a breakup - don't run away! Even if it is tempting and seems like it will save drama. The separation itself, even if it is complex, is important for the child's security, a child who is now crying because of separation is better than a child who constantly does not know when you will disappear.
To create communication - a discourse that both gives room for concerns and fear and also empowers and gives tools to deal with transitions throughout life.
Circularity - the knowledge that we are starting a routine that will repeat itself sometimes gives security and even comfort - everyone is now going to kindergarten or work and then at noon we will all return home and you will tell me how your day was.
Belonging - the home is the foundation of my child. Knowing this and transcribing the belonging both as a basis for "I'm here for you" and as part of the parting "They and I are going now - Yotam is going to school, Abigail is going to school, father is going to work, mother is going to work and then we will meet"
Connection and security - always leave the child with someone or with something such as a game he likes, children are not left "accompanied".
Give a choice in the way of parting, ideas for parting right here below.

 

And some ideas for saying goodbye in the morning in kindergarten:

Say hello from the window or from the security camera in the garden -
Another step on the way out of the garden gate...a gradual transition in farewell.

Give a hug that will stay with you until the end of the day-
I recommend saying that we count to 20 and count together, otherwise it really goes on forever.

To give lots of kisses whenever you miss and want a kiss from mom or dad
You can take one out of your pocket and put it on your cheek.

Draw a picture to color together, leave the child to color and tell him to return the painted picture and hang it on the fridge. One day I found myself drawing the whole kindergarten a picture to color...get ready
to transfer the child "passing package" to the kindergarten. Suitable for the days after the adaptation, when a bond has been established between the child and the kindergarten teacher.
Bringing a transitional object that can be a favorite game such as a doll or a tractor or an object such as mother's clothes that can be used to "branch out" a bit of mother, suitable for softer children.
