First day back at school

With some schools opening up again here in the UK I thought this was quite apt ….

Something to think about from a small child’s point of view ?

First day back at school today

My tummy feels all funny

Can’t wait to see my friends again

But somethings wrong with Mummy?

First day back to school today

No photo at the door

Mummy said ‘no not today’

But why I’m not quite sure

First day back to school today

Can’t wait to play with Sue

I’ll squish her with my bestist hug

And share my toys it’s true !!

First day back at school today

We lined up by the gate

I spotted Sue I tried to run

But Mummy shouted ‘wait’

First day back at school today

I waved goodbye to Mummy

A little tear rolled down her cheek

The ache grew in my tummy

First day back to school today

I’m no longer in Sue’s class

Miss explained ‘we cannot mix’

As I peered in through the glass

First day back to school today

Our play times were all strange

Just my group, no extra friends

Why did things have to change ?

First day back to school today

I tripped and grazed my knee

Miss stayed back as she wiped me clean

Why is she afraid of me?

First day back to school today

I learnt how not to share

And how to stay away from friends

To show them that I care .

First day back to school today

My teacher waved goodbye

Mummy wrapped me in her arms

As we both tried not to cry ?

This made me cry ?

    How do you explain to a 3-year-old, that they are not allowed to play with their friends or sit next to others when their eyes open and trusting bore into your face and ask? What are the words that come to mind?
    Lovely Blog Ms. Pollie Thank you

      Thats exactly how i think NightFlyer63.. Its just like telling birds on your bird table ‘only one at a time please’ .. It makes you cry just thinking about it .. Thank you
