1st Day of Toddler Preschool

On Monday, Lyla started preschool. It is a co-op preschool, so parents are asked to be in the classroom with the child. It's only one day a week, and 2 hours a day. Her class is specifically for children ages 18mth-30mths, so it's perfect for her. And since parents are in the classroom helping, it is at a very reduced rate. This school is a perfect fit for us, and I'm so grateful that we found it.

I love being in the class with her, helping her to explore new things and learn. When we first walked in the class, Lyla was terrified. She clung to me, and had zero interest in anything. But after she realized that I wasn't going anywhere, she relaxed a bit, and started exploring.

We had a lot of fun, and I'm excited to go back next week. As an only child, I think it's important for Lyla to learn to interact with other children so she can learn to play, share and be kind to others.
