Extremely Informative

I was born and raised in the US. I have a degree in Early Childhood Education as well as School Counseling. Every parent of pre-school aged children needs to read or listen to this book. It covers almost every aspect of raising pre-school aged children and getting them ready for pre-school. When I was ready for pre-school, pre-school was not a part of the public school system. I went to a pre-school on the military base where my mom was stationed. Then I transitioned to kindergarten in the public school system. There wasn't a fee for me to attend pre-school. Pre-school in the US is called pre-kindergarten or pre-k. Head Start is a government program for pre-school aged children in mainly big cities, like Philadelphia, where there are a lot of children that come from low-income families. Head Start is a hybrid between a daycare/nursery and a pre-school. It's for children who are not getting taught at home the basics they will need when entering public school.

This book taught me so much. I raised 3 boys (my nephews) who attended pre-school in the 1990s. Each of them were different in how they communicated, reacted to things and learned. It felt like riding a carousel until they were in primary/elementary school. They all had different needs at different times. This book would have greatly helped me then. To say this book spoke to me as a mom/aunt, is an understatement. I could totally relate. I love that techniques used with autistic children are being used with other children. It seems like the education system is doing a better job at meeting children where they are at. This review would be super long if I talked about everything that I liked. The social stories and comic strip conversations really stood out to me as great teaching tools...and color coding the bubbles is a great idea. I loved learning about all of the ways kids can communicate with pictures especially the communication book. I loved learning how to teach young children how to do deep breathing exercises. There were many "Ah Ha!" moments for me. In addition, I can't stop thinking about pizza rainbows. If I were raising children in today's world, I would be joining the Facebook group and visiting the author's website. These would definitely be some of my go-to sources for parenting techniques, strategies and advice.

Guide to improve your child's social skills

I believe that social skills are something that we should work on from childhood. And many parents neglect their children's social skills and leave the child to fend for himself. This neglect can hinder your child's life as they lack communication skills due to lack of socialization and hence they may suffer from it. This book is really helpful for parents who wants to improve their child's social skills. It is beautifully described. I recommend it to everyone.

Valuable insights

I wanted to get something for my niece. And i think this is the answer... It is perfect for my sweet niece who feels shy and anxious at school.

I'm excited to support my niece on her journey to make new friends and improve her social interactions. The book has both expertise and empathy which make it a must-have for parents and educators. I wish I had this resource years ago, for myself (i was a shy kid too). Highly recommended for fostering friendships and enhancing communication skills in shy kids!

Excellent book so helpful

This is a fantastic book and lifesaver. Due to hearing loss, my son goes to speech therapy and wears hearing aids. He is timid and self-conscious. Often when he says something, people don't understand him, so it costs him to be very quiet and low confident. Thank goodness I found this book. This book provides so many tips and techniques on how I can help my son to communicate better. This is not only going to allow him to have a better social life, but also, I am hoping he can start making more friends at school and, most importantly, gain confidence speaking.

This audio is a goldmine.

Great to help your preschooler prepare for school

What a great idea for a book! I thought back to when my daughter was starting preschool and I realized how useful a book like this would have been to get her prepared. So many of these things just never occurred to me but make perfect sense now. I enjoyed its thoughtful and engaging approach and the narrator's voice was calming and nice to listen to.
