Is it ok to reuce DD kindy days before starting school?

THat is a lot bek....for you too !!!
Yeah, if it were me, i would drop a thing or two.....your lucky she wants to stay at home and just hang. My oldest is like that, begs on the weekend 'mum, can we just have a day at home'......i know im buggered by Fri night, so imagine how they feel.....
Cherish these last months at home bek where you dont HAVE to go out.....coz for the next 15,16 yrs your going to be picking them up/dropping them off....

I'd be more inclined to keep kinder and drop playgroup or a different activity. Is kinder the year before prep where you are - I get confused as it's different between states . If She's going in to school next year and getting used to a longer, structured program is important.

MBear - Yep I am exhausted with all the running around lol.

Pandora - DD goes to prep next year which is every day from 9am till 2.30. Then they start grade 1.

I wish my DH was not so adamant about her going to Polish school on a Saturday because this is the first thing I'd drop. Maybe dancing could go, but both girls love it. I won't drop playgroup because I am quite involved and on the committee etc.

Yeah I'd be more willing to drop other things rather than Kinder.

Have a good think about what activities she won't be doing next year and maybe drop one of them instead. Kinder is a structured environment, like school so I'd be more reluctant to drop that IYKWIM.

That's what I'd be doing as well. Playgroup would be the first to go for me. What about dancing, or will she be continuing with that next year as well?

I know it's hard but she's going to need to learn to deal with boisterous boys at school. Kindy is the last thing I'd be cutting back on.

If swimming ends soon then you'll get a day there - can you maybe go every second week to playgroup till that happens?

Does your DD like Polish school? I'd not be having a chat with DH about that one - could she not start doing that when she is 5 or 6 or will she be missing out on some basics?

Thank everyone for your opinions. I guess I thought about dropping a kindy day because Polish school is just like kindy but in a different language.

Curly -DH won't budge on the Polish school issue. Our compromise is to start her this year before school starts just to gauge if she likes it. If she doesn't like going then I'll pulling her out regardless of what DH says.

Ok so I've decided to keep doing everything but I am going to miss a session of each on a rotating roster. Hopefully that will give us a bit of everything without over stretching DD and the rest of us
