To make the transition of children from kindergarten to primary school smooth

Abstract

Should the child be ready for school or school for each child? Kindergartens often hear that starting elementary school is very hard for children and they have to prepare well for it. Elementary school, on the other hand, operates with the argument that the kindergarten program is too relaxed, children just play and come to school unprepared.

What is the function of the kindergarten from the point of view of entering primary school, what should not be neglected in the last year before entering school, and what is superfluous?
