The first two months of a new school year are full of transition. New teacher. New classroom. New friends in the classroom. New schedule. New expectations.
For kids who love routine, all of this new stuff can really shake things up.
Kids who are prone to anxiety tend to struggle with big transitions, and a new school year is BIG.
That said, I have a couple of articles for you that relate to childhood anxiety:
For those of you wondering why your older children are struggling with separation anxiety at school and just how long it might last, please head over to Everyday Family and check out 5 Tips for Helping Kids Cope with Separation Anxiety.
And for those of you concerned about social anxiety and wondering how to help your kids with the discomfort that accompanies it, please stop by allParenting and check out “What is social anxiety in kids?”
I hope these articles help with your little worries. Please feel free to send topics my way by stopping by my Facebook Page!
