Grandparents Raising Grandchildren: Helping Your Preschooler Be Ready for School Number: CHFD-E-59-10 Date: 08/09 Grandparents can help children get ready to start school by helping them practice skills such as following directions, sitting quietly for short periods of time, and dressing themselves. Activities such as reading aloud and cooking together can help build pre-reading and pre-math skills that will form a bridge between home and school.
