Having read Yay… It’s My First Day of School to my kids, I witnessed its impact firsthand. The book effortlessly captures the essence of those nerve-wracking yet exciting first days. The rhymes and illustrations are absolutely adorable and they can easily open up conversations about school experiences. I’d imagine it being an excellent tool for teachers to help students feel more comfortable sharing their emotions, especially about starting school. I could see it being used as an ice breaker on that first day of school! But, for myself, I will just keep reading it to my kids when they are feeling anxious about school. It helps kids go out with a positive mindset and an open mind, hopefully to make more friends!
Yay… It’s My First Day of School
A part of the Mr. B’s Books series, which also includes Amazon Bestseller Happy Makes Me Happy and Twins With Love x2, this encouraging story builds on the author’s previous body of work that aims to empower young people with self-confidence, love, and a broader understanding of the world they live in. The rhyming language and warm illustrations help keep the stories light and entertaining while teaching kids about important subjects.
For parents, teachers, and young students, this book perfectly encapsulates the feelings so many children face when preparing for school, and shows that with an open mind and positive attitude, anxiousness can quickly transform into new friends and great opportunities!
