Today was Jonah’s first day of preschool, and we were all very excited. This morning was just a short time for the kids and their parents to visit the classroom, talk with the teachers and see all the fun things that will be waiting for them on their first full morning alone next week. He’ll be going there on Tuesday and Thursday mornings with a bunch of other 3-year-olds.
The school is just four blocks from our house, so we’ll be able to walk there every day. Jonah was all set to head out with his firetruck backpack!
The whole family on the big day
Last night, Jonah was talking all about how he was going to play in the kitchen area and “cook some food and use pots and pans and wash dishes!!” It was his first stop when he went in the classroom.
Jonah also played with cars on a road mat, made coffee for us in the bean tub, and saw other toys and books that he’ll be playing with. He somehow got the idea that they have “dump trucks and loaders and pavers and rollers and lots of trucks in the shed” which is in the outdoor play area near the sandbox. I have no idea if these trucks actually exist, but he’s convinced they’re in there, waiting for him. Next week, we’ll find out… :)
