Your local schools should have tests that your child can take to see if he or she is academically ready. However, many children are academically ready, but not emotionally or socially ready. You can talk to a counselor or a friend about your child's social skills too, but trust your instincts. You know your child better than anyone and if you don't think that she is emotionally or socially ready she probably isn't. Another good thing to do is to look at your child's birth date. If he or she is going to be the youngest in the class, it may be better to wait a year. Sometimes waiting that extra year is all a child needs to be more confident about school.

∙ 12y agoHow to Prepare Your Child for Kindergarten
Children will begin kindergarten at some point in their young life, and parents can help them prepare for their years in school by doing a few simple things. Talk to your child about what to expect when they start school. If they will be riding the bus, teach them the rules of bus safety and how it is important to sit down while the bus is moving. Begin teaching your child how to properly spell their first and last name. If they cannot grasp the last name, at least make sure they know how to spell the first name. Work with your child on their shapes and colors. A big part of kindergarten is knowing what the words are for the different colors, shapes, and numbers. The more your child knows before entering school, the more confident they will be.
If your child is like some children, they will be able to make friends easily. Talk to them about remaining quiet in the classroom and waiting until it is time to go outside to talk to their friends. Some schools still offer naps for their kindergartners. The students don't need to go to sleep, but they do need to be quiet. Wait for your child in the afternoon with a snack, ready to hear all about their day in kindergarten.
