How essential is it to set up playdates for your 4 year old to help her adjust at school? Will my 4 year old be at a serious disadvantage if I don't? [ Reply | Watch | Flag ]

thats sort of how I feel. she is the type of child that really enjoys playing alone in her room. with the limited amount of time I think it is OK for her to have her alone time. she doesn't seem to have any "issues" at school. However I am wondering if I don't do the 1:1 thing if it will be more difficult to have friends. [ Reply | More ]

Not necessarily. But maybe you can try to get a playdate with someone she likes on a weekend? [ Reply | More ]

i find that playdates outside of school really help - the 1:1 thing is good. my nanny does a lot of it, but i try to at least stay moderately involved. ds usually asks to play w specific kids also. [ Reply | More ]
