The first return to the school year is often scary for children, then, do not complicate their life at school.
Back to school is a great moment for children … as for their parents. It is often the first real separation, the first steps in a collective environment, and sometimes the first tears. Many questions are jostling: will my child be able to integrate, speak, make himself understood? To this is added a well -known anxiety of families: cleanliness. Some children are not yet completely independent in the toilet, and the simple fact of removing pants can become an impossible mission. In this context, a very concrete detail can change everything during the day of a small one … starting with what it is wearing.
On Tiktok, a kindergarten teacher decided to share a warning addressed to all parents, as back to school approaches. In her video, she recalls that clothing choices have a real impact on the daily lives of children at school. Its message is clear: it is not style or trends, but comfort, autonomy and sometimes even safety. It alerts in particular on certain outfits which, although practical at home or aesthetics for a photo of return to school, very much complicate the life of a child … and that of the mistresses. “Think about the well-being of your children and facilitate the daily life of the Atsems and the Mistresses“Add @by.nayge.
Concretely, this mistress strongly advises against laces as well as “Shoes difficult to put on in which the child must slide his finger to succeed in putting on “or shoes with large platforms that are not suitable for toddlers. To ban also: the belts and scarves which can represent a danger, as are jewelry, but also overalls and pants that are too tight, complex to remove and which prevent some children from going alone to the toilet.
Thus, it invites to favor basic and elastic pants with flexible shoes, scratch, easy to put on and remove without help. All these elements can hinder the child in his movements, be a problem in the event of a grouping, or simply slow down the autonomy that we are just trying to encourage from the start of the school year.
Beyond the clothes, this return to school is an opportunity to teach your child to manage a few gestures alone: to open a bag, wash your hands, recognize your things. It is also useful to speak with him routines of the day, to reassure him about what will happen. Finally, a last simple, but precious advice: to label all affairs, because between two forgotten sweaters and three pairs of identical shoes, this avoids many confusion. Back to school is a shared adventure: you might as well make it softer … as soon as the outfit is chosen.
