Back to School Jitters....

So, Gabe is starting Kindergarten. I am thrilled for him. He is so ready. He is smart, loves to learn and is such a kind-hearted kid that makes friends. I KNOW that he will have a great, successful year. He is just that kind of kid that chooses to behave, work hard and finds success easily. Gosh he is GREAT! Still this little 5 year old and I have been slightly nervous, along with our excitement....

So I think that the best way to combat these situations is with books written by incredible authors who work through issues with such talent (and humor) that is calms the jitters.

Gabe and I were combatting the BACK TO SCHOOL jitters.

Here are so great books that we enjoyed. Our favorites were:

1. Seymour Slug Starts School

2. Eddie gets Ready for School

3. Boomer Goes to School

4. Little Bear Starts Kindergarten

5. First Day

6. Dino Pets Go to School

7. Amelia Bedelia First Day of School

8. Back to School Tortoise

We loaned these from the local library, but also read our own collection of the Kissing Hand & the Berenstain Bears Back to School.

How do you handle your child's jitters? I love new tips.
