Happy School Year's Eve!

Twas the night before preschool,
and as they prepared,

the kids were excited
and a little bit scared.

They tossed and they turned
about in their beds
while visions of school supplies

danced in their heads.

Brand-new backpacks
they got at the store
were ready to go
and by the front door.

Outfits were hung
in the closets with care
knowing that preschool
soon would be there.

What would it be like?

What would they play?

Would the teacher be nice?

Would it last all day?

  

Would they make a new friend?

Would they like the snack?

What if my parents

never came back?

In the morning it came –

Preschool starts today!

Kids posed for pictures

and got on their way.

The parents were worried

their children would cry

if they left them at school

with just a good-bye.

But there in the door

was a smiling face.

The teacher was ready

with a hug, just in case.

The children all waved

from the door of the school.

“Don’t cry, Mom and Dad;

Preschool is cool!”

Let's go! 
A new school year full of fun and play is about to begin!
