As a child is about to start kindergarten, she may feel some anxiety about being away from home during the day, meeting new people and wondering if the teacher will be nice, among other things. This is completely normal and shows that your child is processing her feelings about the milestone. You can help your child's transition to school by helping to build confidence. Self-confidence helps children to focus more on learning what is required at school, and will make building friendships easier.

Instructions

    1 Praise your child for good deeds. When she helps you with a chore or cleans up her toys, make her aware of your approval. Say things like, "Wow, I'm really glad you cleaned your room. It looks great." or "You are a great artist, I love your drawing."
    2 Encourage your child to try new things. If your child is interested in a new hobby, encourage her to practice and enjoy it. Extra-curricular activities such as sports and music help build confidence in a child's abilities.
    3 Listen to your child with interest as she tells you a story or explains her needs and wants. Your undivided attention can make a child feel important and relevant.
    4 Help your child to fit in with her future classmates. Don't rush out and buy the latest sneakers, but offer choices during the school shopping process. A child who is comfortable in the clothing she wears to school has one less thing to feel out of place about.
