Daniel Goes to School Daniel Tiger Neighborhood Becky Friedman Jason Fruchter 9781481403184 Books Reviews

• My son literally cried every day ALLLLLL day long when he first started preschool. After the 3rd week of nothing working, I decided to give this book a try. We read it a bunch of times over the weekend, and then I put it in his bookbag for him to look at if he got sad during the day. The difference was night and day because by the end of the week he was LOVING school.
• My 4 year old granddaughter heads off to pre K this fall and she has never been in daycare. She is not keen on being left with anyone but very close family. We are reading this book now and she has been acting excited now about going to school. It has prepared her on what to expect. The pictures are great.
• This book was probably the biggest influence for my daughter when preparing to start preschool. We read this almost everyday for a month before she started and it stuck with her the most out of all the other school books we purchased. My daughter refers to what she’s learned in this book quite often and it seems like she’s finally realized that her parents will always return to get her when they drop her off somewhere. It’s like a lightbulb turned on and this book helped her realize that she won’t be separated from her parents indefinitely. Not only has this helped with school drop-off, but she was even able to go to childcare at church without any separation anxiety!
  
  Why we love this book
  
  1. Focuses on parents coming back to pick up kids.
  -Daniel Tiger’s dad says “grown-ups come back” when he drops him off at school and Daniel then tells his classmate to make her feel better. At the end it shows the parents returning to pick up their kids, which ensures that “grown-ups come back”.
  -we used this catchphrase to prepare our daughter and she even tells her teacher now that mommy and daddy always comes back.
  
  2. Storyline is perfect for a 2 year old (&up).
  -simple enough for a 2 year old to follow along and storyline follows general preschool routine drop off, drawing/craft time, circle time, lunch, pick-up. There’s no nap time or outside playground or going potty involved in this story.
  
  3. Daniel involves the reader.
  -Daniel starts and end the book saying hi to the reader to ride along with him to school. He then says goodbye at the end and summarizes. I kind of took my own spin off of this last page by making it seem like Daniel Tiger was preparing my daughter for her first day of school and to remember that mommy and daddy will always come back. (Worked like a charm!)
• This helped my son tremendously as we prepared him for Preschool. While reading other books and discussing the up coming school year he was set on not going. I ordered this book and suddenly his whole attitude changed. I think repeating the phrase "grownups always come back" helped make things a little easier. I would definitely recommend to a friend.
• This was a great book depicting everything that happes in pre school.Danial goes to school with his father..how he tries to say his father not to leave and what happens after his father leaves him.Daniel made friends in school ..everybody made pictures there and played and at the end as his father said grown up comes back.So it's nice book to encourage them to go to school and ensure them that grown up comes back at end of day.There was no sad part ..rather balanced and well thought descriptions.My son loved it.But I wish it to be a board book other than that it awesome book at awesome price.
• A GREAT book and a must have for parents that start their kid in daycare. My son is almost three and started full time daycare last week. Before he had been staying with a family in home day care. The switch has been hard and he has been very upset at drop off. However we sat down and read this book multiple times this weekend at his request and he seems to understand the whole drop off thing a lot better.
• This is basically a written out version of the episode (if you've ever seen the episode "grown-ups come back")
  We purchased in anticipation of starting preschool and because she knew the song/episode, I found it very helpful. On the way to school the first few days, we sang "grown ups come back" and then had a talk about mommy coming back at the end of the day. It was helpful.
• Love and appreciate the positive message. A MUST for any child starting preschool or daycare to help focus on the positive that "grown ups come back" given that separation anxiety is normal and to be expected in any toddler not being with his or her primary caregiver. Highly recommend!
