The first day of preschool is a significant milestone for children in Singapore, but it can also be challenging, often leading to tantrums. For many preschoolers, the transition to a new environment away from their parents can trigger feelings of anxiety and overwhelm.
To handle these tantrums effectively, it's important for parents and educators to stay calm and patient. Acknowledge the child’s feelings by validating their emotions with comforting words like, "I know you're feeling upset, but you'll be okay." Offering a favorite toy or a comforting item from home can also provide reassurance.
Gradual introductions to the preschool environment, such as visiting the school beforehand or meeting the teachers, can ease the transition. Consistency is key, so maintaining a regular goodbye routine can help the child feel more secure.
Engaging the child in activities they enjoy can quickly redirect their focus and reduce stress. Over time, as the child becomes more familiar with the preschool setting and routine, their anxiety will diminish, leading to a smoother and more enjoyable experience.
