I'm Going to Preschool (Big Steps)

My daughter loved this book, and me too! I really think it’ll help her to understand what going to preschool is, and will make her feel more confident! It comes with some helpful tips for parents to talk to their children 👌🏻

I bought a few preschool-related books for my daughter, who recently turned 3 years old and has a rare chromosome disorder that causes developmental delays and autism. She seems to respond better to new things when she has had a chance to "read" books on the topic repeatedly beforehand. Although COVID prevented her from attending her new preschool program for children with disabilities this past semester, we had bought this book to help prepare her for the idea. She LOVES this book. She wants to read it daily. She has memorized the children's names and likes to talk about each of them. Because my daughter is used to being with me 24/7, we liked how the last page emphasizes how Ben had a lot of fun at preschool and then it was time to go home (like a first-then directive, to which my daughter responds well). My daughter recites that part; I think it helped her understand and give her comfort knowing that there is a predictable end to the school session when we will pick her up. She loves this book so much that I decided to purchase two others from the same author, and she loves THOSE so much that I will probably end up buying more!

This book was the best book to prepare my daughter for preschool. I ordered several other ones because she seems to understand new concepts a lot better when we read about them and look at pictures. It has all the important (somewhat universal) preschool concepts in it (drop off, teacher, cubby, circle time, etc. ) as well as flaps and wheels to turn to make the book come to life and interactive. highly recommend this one!

I purchased this for a grandchild two months ago. I thought it would be just another book on the shelf because I send her plenty of variety. To my surprise, I learned she asks her mother to read it frequently and took it for show and tell to preschool. She read it to her classmates showing them the pictures as if she was an older person reading it. Now the words were not really read, but showing the book and telling its story captivated her group and made me happy that it was meaningful to her. Preschool taped it and I got to see it even though COVID has kept us apart for months. The book is engaging.

great for prepping for preschool. this helped my 3 year old with transition to school and get an idea of the routine. and the flaps make it fun.

My son starts preschool this year. I bought a few books to help him anticipate this huge milestone. This is by far our favorite book! It doesn’t mention separation anxiety, which is a plus for us. It is interactive and just talks about the fun part of preschool!

My 3 year old was starting preschool and I wanted a book to help introduce the concept to him. This book did just that, but also made it fun with the interactive pages. He loves it! I also love that it encourages conversation with him about concepts we have not talked about before since they are new to him. The illustrations are colorful, fun, but not too busy. The preschool concepts introduced are general preschool activities and you can alter your conversations to fit how your child experiences preschool. We continue to read this book even after preschool has started!

This is my favorite interactive board book. It's has painting and the paintbrush changes colors along with the pictures. This book has helped my son know what to expect at preschool. I highly recommend. I jjst bought no more diapers and if it is half as good as this i will be thrilled

Lovely story

My son love it!
