Daily routines

Practise waking, dressing, eating and leaving home on a steady schedule. Let the child carry a small bag and recognise personal belongings.

Communication

Help the child state a name, ask for help and describe a basic need. Read aloud and discuss pictures in Arabic and English.

Early concepts

Count familiar objects, compare sizes and identify common colours and shapes. Keep each activity short.

School confidence

Talk about teachers, classmates and classroom rules in calm terms. Visit the campus when the school confirms an appointment.

Parents can ask Shatha admissions about kindergarten places and the information needed before a visit.
