What should parents do when facing separation anxiety in kindergarten?

When parents face the problem of separation anxiety in children's kindergarten, they should pay attention to creating more suitable activity environments for their children and not let their children feel insecure. Or they can take their children to early education centers for some communication and interaction before going to kindergarten.

(1) Create more rich and appropriate activity environments for children (such as early childhood education centers) so that children can communicate and interact more with each other and find various fun activities in this environment. Before your child attends early childhood education classes, you should let him or her know that the early childhood education center is an interesting place with many friends playing games together. The teachers will also do many meaningful activities with everyone. They can learn skills and play games. This will leave a good impression on the child and make him or her yearn for and look forward to it.

(2) Separation anxiety is mainly caused by the child losing the person he is attached to and feeling insecure. In order to prevent children from feeling anxious and help them adapt to an environment where their parents are not present, it is necessary to help children establish a new attachment relationship with their teachers. Parents should praise the teachers for being kind and beautiful; tell the children that the teachers can tell many stories, sing songs, and play games with them; before and after class, parents can deliberately communicate with the teachers in a friendly manner in front of the children, so that the children will feel that the teachers are good friends of their parents.

(3) After each class, parents should not rush to take their children home. They can play with their children on the activity equipment for a while, but they must pay attention to safety. When the child is having fun, the parents should indicate that it is time to end the game and promise him to play again tomorrow or next time. In this way, the child may "miss" the scene of playing and be more motivated to come to class next time.
