Ideas to prepare your child for Kindergarten
  • Play board games with your child to practice taking turns
  • Visit the local library
  • Set up several play dates this summer
  • Visit your child's school playground and practice playing on the equipment and following rules such as 'slides are for going down'
  • Have your child practice following one-step and two-step directions. This could easily be done by making lunch together or having them pick up their toys.
  • Read to your child for a combined total of at least 20 minutes a day.
  • Draw together, allowing your child time to practice using different tools (crayons, markers, pencils, sidewalk chalk)
  • Have your child practice writing their name multiple ways (with playdough, using a stick in the dirt/sand, shaving cream, using sidewalk chalk, or on paper)
  • Have your child practice sorting objects around the house, this is especially fun while doing chores together (sort clothes, silverware, their toys)
  • While driving in the car or shopping in a grocery store, notice letters, numbers, colors on signs, or in the objects around them
  • Practice counting to 20 while taking a walk or driving in the car.
  • Count objects together. Count everything in and out of the home. While collecting rocks is especially fun!
  • Engage in pretend play together. For example, use a plain cardboard box to go on an adventure to the moon.
  • Visit local parks and beaches and take time to notice the amazing wonders nature has to offer.
  • Provide plenty of opportunities to allow your child to engage in free play both inside and outside the house on a daily basis.
WaKIDS is a transition process that helps to ensure a successful start to the K-12 experience and connect the key adults in a child's life. Please visit the Washington Kindergarten Inventory of Developing Skills (WaKIDS) website.

Three Components of WaKIDS
  1. Family connection welcomes families into the Washington K-12 system as partners in their child's education.
  2. Whole-child assessment gives kindergarten teachers information about the social/emotional, physical, cognitive, language, literacy, and mathematics development of the children in their classrooms, so they may tailor their instruction to the individual needs of each child.
  3. Early learning collaboration aligns practices of early learning professionals and kindergarten teachers to support smooth transitions for children.
