My 4 year old son is quite shy – he is often afraid of kids at the playground and only engages in parallel play occasionally.
Can anyone recommend any picture books or Mr Rogers / Sesame Street episodes on interacting with other kids? I think that he needs examples of the skills required to talk with other kids, as well as examples of shy kids having fun with other kids.
As a side question, I don’t understand how lemmy works. How do I see the c/parenting groups on all of the other lemmy servers?
You would think so, but preschools don’t have too much time for non-crisis stuff like this.
OK, that might be the case for you but please do not generalize. IMO any preschool/kindergarten educator who dismisses a parent’s question has failed.
Or do you refer to what’s happening during the day?
