My First Day of Preschool Social Story
By magicalminikids
My First Day of Preschool Social Story is a simple, child-friendly resource designed to help young learners prepare for their first day of preschool. This preschool social story introduces children to common preschool routines and experiences in a gentle, reassuring way. It can be read with children before preschool begins or used during the first days and weeks of school to help children feel more comfortable with their new environment. This resource can also support SEN learners, special education, and social-emotional learning (SEL) by helping children understand what to expect, build confidence, communicate their needs, recognise their feelings, and navigate new classroom routines. Children will explore what it may be like to: • Go to preschool • Say goodbye to their grown-up • Meet their preschool teacher and classmates • Put their belongings away • Join a classroom activity • Play with other children • Ask for help when they need it • Use the bathroom • Eat snack or lunch • Recognise and talk about different feelings • Get ready to go home The story uses short, simple sentences and child-friendly illustrations, making it suitable for preschoolers and young children who benefit from visual supports, social stories, and predictable routines. Great for: • Preschool back-to-school preparation • First day of preschool • Preschool classrooms • Preschool social stories • Social-emotional learning • Classroom transitions • Morning meeting • Circle time • Small-group instruction
