A parent coach walks through the five biggest worries kids have before starting school: liking their teacher, finding the bathroom, making friends, navigating the building, and saying goodbye. She gives a quick fix for each one, like role-playing bathroom use before the first day.
This is going to be really helpful for you if you've got kids starting school, so watch on. Even if they don't tell us, they have a lot of fears, so I've picked out the top 5.

They have big fears around using the toilet. 4. Who's going to be their friend? And 5. Saying goodbye to us and feeling sad. Luckily, I've got solutions for all of these in my free guide, but here's one to be getting on with. Kids are really scared to use the toilet, so do a role play and get them to go— ask to go. Practice makes it so much easier. I've got so much more to tell you, which is why you're going to want to grab my free guide. Just drop 'school' below to get it or see my bio.
