📚 Starting school is a big milestone—and books can help make the transition easier.

Reading stories about starting school, making new friends, and coping with separation anxiety can help children feel more confident and prepared for their first day. Sharing these books together also creates opportunities to talk about their feelings and build resilience.

Here are a few favorites:
📖 The Kissing Hand by Audrey Penn
📖 Llama Llama Misses Mama by Anna Dewdney
📖 The Invisible String by Patrice Karst
📖 First Day Jitters by Julie Danneberg
