I read a great article on Parenting.com recently called Preschool Confidential: What Teachers Want You to Know.
It’s written by a preschool teacher.
Some parts made me laugh out loud and the last point made me a little misty, so I wanted to share it with you.
You might not agree with every opinion, but there are a lot of great points she made that would not have occurred to me. Like how I am now regretting giving my daughter’s kindergarten teacher a scented candle for her birthday this year…:)
Any other teachers out there reading this? Would love your opinion on the article. Do you agree? Anything else we should know?

A great perspective!
these two are hilarious:
If you give me baked goods, please don’t tell me that your child helped make them. I bake with your children, too, and I know the secret ingredients that go into their recipes.
and
A Nutella sandwich, chocolate milk, and cookies is not a lunch. It is a small dessert buffet.
thnx for the read!
That’s a great article. I’m going to have to work on the workout clothes thing…I would have never thought that bothered a teacher!
As a first grade teacher I agree with a lot of it. Workout clothes do not bother me…pajamas do. 🙂
I thought the same thing about the workout clothes – but I think the point was more about being late vs. the workout clothes. Like if you are on time, it wouldn’t matter!
