Parents can get their five- and six-year-olds off to a good start in school if they prepare them well in advance for , their first experience. A booklet, "Happy Journey." tells them how to make youngsters ready physical ly, mentally and emotionally to enter that new world. . ! "In this booklet, parents will j learn about the skills, experiences, the health habits each child should , have before his school days begin." I says Mrs. Newton P. Leonard, pres ident of the National Congress of Parents and Teachers, in an intro duction to the 40-cent booklet published jointly by the Congress and the National Education Asso ciation. , t "Here parents will sense that nowhere in the whole field of hu man life and endeavor does their power for good count for more than in the guidance of young children." The 32-page booklet is intended to help parents get their children ready at home for such things they will learn in school as .how to get along with others, how to share, explore, play, listen, use new words, to care for themselves and their belongings and how to ex press themselves, how to write, count, eat with others and take care of themselves. "At school your child will learn more about safety," the booklet says, "but before he comes to school he should have learned his own name, name of parents, ad dress and phone number, and be willing to give them when asked." and he should have learned "to go some places alone before he goes to school." "Happy Journey" stresses the importance of taking a child to the family doctor and dentist for | a "topknot-to-toenail" physical ex amination. It also suggests that as opening day nears it's a good idea to walk to the school build ing with him several times.
