If you often feel like the school day is too long for your kid, and maybe a little too short for you, you might be in one of the best phases of your child’s life. Parenting Your Kindergartner is a concise and interactive guide that simplifies what you need to know about kindergartners in general and gives you a place to discover more about your kindergartner—so you can make the most of this phase. The Phase Project is a synthesis of personal experience, academic research, and gatherings of leaders and educational experts from across the child development spectrum. Designed in partnership with Parent Cue, this guide is one volume in an 18-book series to help you parent your child through every year. Author Kristen Ivy is executive director of the Phase Project.
