School starts early this year for most kids, which means now is the time to start talking with your child about going back to school. Perhaps your child may not want to discuss school with you but I would keep talking about it anyway.
 
Here are some topics:
1. Have you missed school?
2. What friends are you looking forward to seeing?
3. What was your favorite summer activity?
4. What was the hardest part of summer break?
5. What will you tell your friends about your summer holiday?
6. We need to get you to bed earlier!
7. What new clothes do you think you would like for school when we purchase your school supplies?
8. Let’s make a play date with an old friend from school.
