Kindergarten or grandmother: whom to entrust the child to?

Kindergarten. Of course, we all remember several cases when children disappeared from kindergarten – they left, someone took them away … And this stops many parents from entrusting the care of the child to strangers. But, in defense of kindergartens, there are very few such cases throughout the country. Caregivers are people who do their job, usually do well. In kindergarten, the day is organized, there is a regime, children are counted and checked.

Grandmother. Grandmother will have grandchildren in front of her eyes all the time, and after one or two it is much easier than after fifteen. Grandmother, of course, is personally attached to your children, loves them, as no educator will love. And if the grandmother is also a great storyteller with a dish of pies, the grandchildren themselves will run after her with their tail.

Grandmothers always know how to treat a scratch or a mosquito bite, how to rinse an eye from a speck and a bunch of other useful things. And most importantly, grandmothers are happy to spend time with their grandchildren and appreciate every such moment. Therefore, there will certainly be an eye and an eye.

Kindergarten. You need to pay for it, a certain amount monthly, somewhere more, somewhere less. In addition, for the holidays – costumes and dresses, fees for toys, stationery, workbooks, etc. But this is decided in every garden with the parents. It should be so.

Grandmothers usually they refuse any additional payments, although not always. After all, it is a real joy for them to sit with their grandchildren. But, I think, reasonable and conscientious parents themselves will bring food and leave funds for walks, so it is calmer on their own.

Kindergarten. I didn’t go to kindergarten myself, my husband didn’t go, and we didn’t take my daughter. But, according to rumors, they feed correctly in the kindergarten, and children do not always like it. There are no frills, but there is a chance that your child will get used to eating porridge, if there is no such tradition at home.

Grandmother. Grandmothers cook a lot and tasty. Sometimes too high in calories. It is worth having a conversation with grandmothers on the topic of nutrition – what is allowed and what is not. After all, grandmothers have long been young mothers and may no longer remember that mushrooms, for example, up to 6 years old are not recommended for children at all, that chocolate should be dosed, and not given away the bar right away. That a lot of baking is harmful, and soups, fruits and vegetables are the very thing. If your grandmother hears you and will be with you, the baby’s homemade food will only benefit him.

Kindergarten – this is preparation for school, so the daily routine is mandatory here. Played on time, walked on time, slept on time. Children learn to organize their own games and learn to play what the teacher suggests. There are singing and dancing classes in the garden, children put on performances for their parents for almost every holiday. In my opinion, the task of such leisure is to teach a child to be constantly busy. And this is very cool. Minus – kindergarten children often do not know how to play alone, they constantly need company.

Grandmother will play whatever the kid wants to play. Also, the grandmother rarely knows how to say “no” and is led by the whims of the children. If only the child does not cry, the grandmother will show a circus, invent a bicycle, become an astronaut or even a rocket. For this, grandmothers are loved. “Grandmothers are adults who always have time for children,” said one kid, and how right he is!

Kindergarten. If parents do not have time to study colors or geometric shapes with their child, the kindergarten will teach this. And not only that. The idea of ​​time, quantity, size, shape, teaching storytelling and retelling, the first mathematical knowledge – all this is learned in kindergarten. Considering that now, even in the first grade, children pass entrance exams, it is difficult to overestimate the preparation of the kindergarten.

Grandmother. Well, it’s just great if my grandmother has a teacher’s education. But even if it is not there, together you can develop a certain minimum of homework in order to unobtrusively, through play, convey the basic concepts to the child. Educational toys and manuals will help you – a bright magnetic alphabet, a toy talking alarm clock, drawing with paints, all kinds of cards with numbers, books with dubbing and much more. Consult with a competent teacher or study online forums, and your child will not lag behind in development from those who attended kindergarten, and may even surpass.

Kindergarten. Communication with other children is a must, in kindergarten this is enough. For mom and dad, their baby is the best, but that’s the way for everyone. So that it is not a shock for the child that he is not the best one, the influence of society is necessary. In a group of peers, children learn to overcome conflicts, defend their opinions, get along with other children, learn to try on social roles – a leader or a follower, a loner or the soul of a company. And all this without the help of parents. They say that kindergarten children are more adapted to the harsh life than domestic ones.

Grandmother. There are also children in the courtyard of the house or in the nearby park, with whom the child can easily make friends. The main thing is to come there. In addition, there are various circles and sections where the grandmother can take the child while the parents are at work. If you do not sit the baby in front of the TV or computer for the whole day, and try to spend more time outdoors, communicating with other children, you will not feel a lack of social development of the child.
