Ready, Set, Kindergarten!
30 Kindergarten-Ready Days
A parent-guided workbook that helps children practice the whole-child skills beneath classroom participation—not only letters and numbers—while helping adults learn what to notice.
Who it is for
A practical bridge into kindergarten.
Use it before school begins, during the transition, or after kindergarten starts. This is not a countdown that must begin on a particular date. It is a flexible way to practice meaningful school-day demands with connection and without pressure.
Each activity connects the visible task to the attention, body organization, communication, coordination, memory, and independence that help a child use the skill in real life.
The skills underneath readiness
Parents can notice more than a finished page.
- Following directions and starting tasks
