My son cant wait to start school

Wow! that's great. I do hope that he doesn't have a bad experience on the first day of school so that he won't lose interest in schooling. What did you do to make him so excited about schooling? I could remember my brothers throwing tantrums on the first day of school, whew quite traumatic!

That's an adorable guy. It is good that children gets interested with school without us prodding them to do such thing. It would be good that you have given him crayons, papers and pencils and reading materials to give him a little bit of exposure of what real school would be. Just a suggestion to nourish to keep the enthusiasm in him.;-) I did start school at 5. I wanted to go to first grade at 6 but they required first grade at my time to be 7 so I was upset that I couldn't go to school. It's a good thing that my mom sent me to another pre-school. I was always interested with school that when I was in first grade ym teacher assigned me as class leader most of the time. I always had good memories of my school days.;-)

hello violeta_va, Good for you for your son is showing much interest in going to school already. When our eldest was four years old, he started to go to school too. T'was a Day Care actually and he was so excited as your son too. During his first two weeks, it was really a disaster for most of his classmates were crying. They don't like their mother's to be outside. So their teacher let their moms stay with them for a week after that they will stay outside already. So after a week, there was no improvement yet. And because of this his classmates kept on crying still. My son told me one morning that he doesn't like to go to school anymore for his classmates were noisy and always crying. So what we did is to ask him if he likes to go to other school. And he agreed. We looked for another school that luckily he was able to adjust at once, gain some friends that until still his friends.

:) aww it is so good to hear such a thing! I also loved the school when I had started primary school. My love for my school and studying lead me to be the best student of my primary school and I was graduated with a 1st degree after 8 years. However, the life is not as funny as it looks in the childhood and I wish I had always stayed in 1st class, at my 6th age.

My daughter just started school Jan 6th its not been easy she found it quite unsettling but is slowly making new friends and enjoying the oppurtunities school gives her! She loves her uniform though but will no way wear a skirt she was adimant about that so trousers it is! Her little sister misses her like crazy though and loves walking to pick her up in the afternoon and always has a big hug ready for her big sister

I couldn't wait for school to. But I got bored of it after the first few years when it became more of a routine. Sure, meeting your new friends was great but learning all those things wasn't that much fun when you get bad grades for something that you don't understand and are supposed to learn. One would assume that they actually would teach you how it works instead of giving you a 1/10 for not understanding something. :/ Anyway, school is fun for the first few years and still fun for the rest of your life even if it becomes a little boring and starts to get on your nerves. :/

I don't remember much about my attitude toward school at a young age. My youngest child hated being away from me when he was little. So he cried everyday and made it difficult for me. He had a great teacher so that made it somewhat easier. Even when he was littler and went to daycare he would get so upset he would make himself sick. He has grown out of it now that he is nine. He doesn't mind so much going to school. It's the getting up early he hates.

It's so cute of your son. It's good that he likes to go to school that much. I still remember I like to go to school when I was young, as there were many friends in the school, and I enjoyed having fun with them. Also, I liked the teachers and I liked to learn. Also, taking the school bus to school was fun too, as I liked the bus driver also. I do not have any kids yet, but I plan to let my kids go to school when they are 4 years old, as it's good for them to have fun and communicate with others, and also learn something new in school.

That's sweet. Sometimes young kids do get excited about going to school because it makes them feel more grown up. Hopefully the school he's attending will provide a warm and safe environment for learning and growing. I, personally, never really liked going to school. My mom can tell some horror stories about the difficulty she had just getting me up in the mornings; I've always had a tendency towards sleeping late which doesn't jive well with school schedules (or most work schedules, unfortunately). I can't really remember what I thought of school itself when I was just starting, but I felt like it was too much pressure as I got older...OK, part of that pressure I put on myself because I was obsessed with making my parents proud. I've always enjoyed learning on my own more.

hehe.... your kid is so excited. Its nice... He is the same like me, when i was kid... I did really like to go to school, because most of my neighbor has children that already enter kindergarten and elementary. By looking at those kids walking in the street go to the school with the feeling proud of their uniform, they made me feel envy. I was really wanna be like them. They were awesome in such uniform. I asked my mom if i can enter kindergarten, but my mom allowed me when i reach 4 years old. I can still recall i joined the dancing competition and i won 3rd place. But i wonder, i dont like dancing since elementary... hahah If someday i'll have a kid like yours... i wanna bring him to the school, and ask the head and teacher,if its ok if my son just sitting inside, just to introduce him what class is... But if they wont allow me, im going to buy books with cartoon and pictures about animals and other kindergarten books, and become his first teacher. your kid must be excited to learn new things. I know, he must be excited to learn something. let him become one... try to teach him by simply telling about animals and plants. There are many books about learning activity for kinder. You can be his first teacher... bring him to the zoo and teach him how the animals life etc... or go to the lake, and simply explain about the flowers and insects there... how it grows and why we can find fish... at least you become his first teacher, and she become more confident when he enters the first formal education with new faces, the teachers and new friends.

That is certainly a great attitude. It is really great to notice our children getting excited for school and enjoying the activities at school. I am also very happy considering that my child is also very much into going to school. He talks a lot about what they do and the lessons they have discussed. He also is very proud to show me if he perfects the exams and quizes. He is still in Nursery 2.

I think that's great, violeta. Your son was really dedicated I believe. LOL. I remembered when the first time I should go to school, instead of being excited, I was scared and cried all the way to school. I hated it when I was younger and I hope when I have kid they would not inherit that from me. LOL. Best wishes for your son and keep posting. Happy myLotting violeta

Hi,your son is so lovely. I did not like going to school when I was a student.I hoped the holiday would come very soon.But i would miss my classmates when in a half of the holiday,haha.

Well I liked school up until Junior high school. I really loved school when I was younger, it was where I knew I would get to see my friends even if I was grounded,LOL. I know that my daughter is pretty excited to be starting school next year, I'm just a little concerned about her little sister. They grew up together and yet Cloe is the youngest and she isn't going to be able to start at the same time as her sister. I am hoping that I'll be able to keep her busy enough so that she won't notice it so much. I am sure that your son will love going to school. He'll probably drive you nuts after a while,LOL.
