Let’s play, “BACK TO SCHOOL”.

DO you want to help your child to process their thoughts and emotions about school? Read on…

I think it’s finally safe to say we are all back in school…hopefully?

Big transition, amiright? My little one started all-day Kindergarten, and the second she gets home, she NEEDS to play. All I want to do is hear about her day, (like, every. single. detail.) but she needs space and time to reflect. One of the ways I am encouraging her to process all these new experiences is by setting up intentional toys. My girl takes the bus to school this year, so I was beyond excited to discover this gorgeous school bus from Teeny Weeny Toys. She plays “going to school” and “coming home” non-stop. My teacher-self GLOWS when I see this, because I KNOW that play is the best way for her to process all these big, new feelings and experiences.

Have you ever tried to recreate your child’s day with toys?
