School days

School days

A child's fifth birthday marks a huge milestone. For most of us it's when we take our first tentative steps into what will be years of formal education.

We've compiled a few tips that should make the transition to school as easy as 
A-B-C

  • Get your little one off on the right track by playing bingo with some simple basic words, and maths equations.  Simply print off the downloadable PDF sheets, attach to cardboard, cut out and get playing!
  • While you're in the crafty mood, use our tips to make a chart to help make the morning rush a little less chaotic.
  • We have the OHbaby! team's top five books for children about to start school.
  • A new entrant teacher with over 15 years experience gives us her list of things she wishes parents knew when their kids start school.
  • Plus, advice on packing healthy lunches that actually get eaten!
