Whilst I know it works for a lot of families, I personally am against the idea of school before the age of 4 for my children. I'm fortunate enough to be a SAHM and I want to spend those formative years with my children, not putting them in school unnecessarily (in my view). I know socialisation is important, but I think there are many other ways a children can learn socialisation skills without being in a formal education setting.</p> <p>Now if we had to put LO in day care because I had to work, it would probably be a different situation, but as it is now, no, we will not put her preschool until she's 4, and even then, it will be half days, a couple of days per week. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-plan-on-sending-your-lo-to-preschool#post-423043 Thu, 29 Nov 2012 19:15:33 +0000 Mrs. High Heels 423043@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>She started preschool at 20-months. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-plan-on-sending-your-lo-to-preschool#post-423042 Thu, 29 Nov 2012 19:15:30 +0000 Mrs Checkers 423042@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes, when she turns 2. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-plan-on-sending-your-lo-to-preschool#post-423032 Thu, 29 Nov 2012 19:14:15 +0000 Mrs. Pen 423032@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I haven't decided yet...
