Consistency is one of the most important aspects of parenting. Although they may push back, children feel secure and safe when they know their routine, boundaries, and expectations. A predictable schedule and relationships help them appropriately internalize, rehearse and repeat behaviors, which fosters maturity.
While stay-at-home parents may boast about their relaxed schedule, this is not necessarily best for the child. That is why children who attend daycare or preschool can grow in so many areas. They fall into a predictable schedule, learn to anticipate parts of the day, build valuable relationships, and so much more:
- Storytime
- Music and movement
- Arts and crafts
- Imaginative play
- Outdoor time
- Preschool curriculum
Additionally, children who attend daycare or preschool transition to school much better than their peers who have stayed at home. Children who have no routine or schedule may have a very hard time transitioning to a structured school day. This may even impede their ability to make good grades and relationships at school!
On the other hand, children who are adjusted to a structure and routine are ready to make the transition to school. They are able to adapt to new routines and build relationships faster, which can significantly improve their learning skills and educational experience.
