With schools returning to full capacity, some students may naturally be feeling apprehensive about this big change. The following are some tips to help your child re-adjust to their new situation:
- Take care of the basics: make sure they have a good night sleep before school and a healthy breakfast.
- Provide empathy: listen to their worries.
- Validate their worry: remind them that feeling anxious is normal and common.
- Help them problem-solve: encourage them to come up with solutions to their worries and their worst-case scenarios.
- Pay attention to your own behavior: model calmness and confidence and keep goodbye brief. Be careful not to reward your child’s crying, tantrums, or protests by giving them more attention or letting them stay at home.
- Focus on the positive: remind them of all the things that makes school great!
