Alexander is 3 1/2. His birthday is in January, so he won't start kindergarten until 2014. We have started debating when to send him to preschool and where. It feels like a huge undertaking. We have pretty much decided to leave him where he is for the current year. He likes it there and he gets to be with his sister. We also love his daycare provider and they get some preschool every day. The reason that we want him to go to preschool though is that he is not with any children who are the same age as him during the day. We also want him to be in a school for one year before going to kindergarten.
We went to two different open houses last weekend and I think that we have a good first choice as of now. My biggest problem with it is that the school that we liked, still has naptime for the four year olds and the other school doesn't. Alexander has almost grown out of naptime now. I worry that we won't be able to get him to sleep if he naps during the day. The curriculum is good though and it is a really good school.
It just feels like such a big decision. I keep telling myself that it is only preschool and he will survive no matter where he goes. So many kids don't even go to preschool. Why am I worrying so much about it. I guess we'll see what happens as the year goes on and everything will work out.
