A Parent-Guided Program for Ages 4-6: Letters, Numbers, Fine Motor Skills, and Emotional Regulation
Starting kindergarten is a major milestone for children and families. True readiness goes beyond academic skills-it includes confidence, independence, and the ability to manage emotions in a classroom setting.
This comprehensive, parent-guided workbook is designed to help children ages 4-6 build the foundational skills they need for a smooth and successful transition into kindergarten. Created by a psychiatric nurse practitioner, this program supports the whole child by combining early learning with social-emotional development.
Through engaging, easy-to-follow activities, children develop essential early literacy and math skills while strengthening fine motor control, practicing following directions, and building independence in daily routines. In addition, this workbook introduces simple, practical tools to help children understand and manage big emotions-an essential component of school readiness often overlooked in traditional workbooks.
Parents and caregivers are guided every step of the way with clear instructions, helpful tips, and structured tools, including a 30-day kindergarten readiness plan, progress trackers, and readiness checklists. These features make it easy to incorporate learning into everyday routines without overwhelming children or families.
This workbook is ideal for use at home, in preschool or Pre-K settings, and as a supplemental resource for early childhood educators, therapists, and caregivers.
