And then you will have a teacher, and that is very exciting! A teacher will guide all of you big Kindergarten children in learning something new every day.
With all your new friends around, you will play games together, explore the new environment and try new activities.
Hmmm... But what does it mean now in detail, Kindergarten? And what is different from what you experienced so far?
Well, Kindergarten is a place where all big girls and boys from the neighbourhood with the same age come together regularly.
You may know the one or the other little romper already: from your neighbourhood, playgroups or a daycare nursery. That will be nice, and it makes the start a little easier, no?
How do you feel about going
to Kindergarten now?

Oliver,
this year an exciting adventure
is waiting for you...
Do you want to know more about it?
Soon you will be attending Kindergarten with many other children from your neighbourhood.
Wow, that will be so much fun!
Mum will be by your side – proudly supporting you on your way.
The following pages will help you, and also Mum, to be prepared for this big and fun change.
Until now, Mum spent the days with you.
Have a look at the picture! You enjoyed that, right?
We played, laughed and cuddled.
We stayed home, we went outside and had a lot of fun.
You learned so many things until now!
Walking, talking, singing, dancing, drawing...
You are a great kid Oliver...
The next weeks will be exciting for you, but also for Mum.
I wish you the very best, and I am sure you will have a blast being a Kindergarten child from now on.
I am proud of what you have achieved so far.
With this little present, I want to make sure you can prepare the best possible for the upcoming change.
On top of that, I want you to have a beautiful memory on your shelf, which will remind you later of these exciting days.
With love, Mum.
Hmmm... But what does it mean now in detail, Kindergarten? And what is different from what you experienced so far?
Well, Kindergarten is a place where all big girls and boys from the neighbourhood with the same age come together regularly.
You may know the one or the other little romper already: from your neighbourhood, playgroups or a daycare nursery. That will be nice, and it makes the start a little easier, no?
But for sure you will meet children you don‘t know yet. That means you will have the opportunity to make a lot of new friends there.
That sounds amazing. What do you think?
And then you will have a teacher, and that is very exciting! A teacher will guide all of you big Kindergarten children in learning something new every day.
With all your new friends around, you will play games together, explore the new environment and try new activities.
Did you meet your teacher already?
Do you know if it is a man or a woman? What else do you know about your new teacher?
Your teacher will be impressed with all you know already... oh, and of course of what you are capable.
What are you especially good at, Oliver?
You will see that your Kindergarten class has a big room, and depending on what you are asked to do, you might need to sit down and put all your attention to what the teacher is saying.
All the children will be asked to answer a question or share their ideas. Are you curious already?
How do you feel about going
to Kindergarten now?
The change to Kindergarten will come with a lot of emotions popping up along the way.
This is absolutely normal, Oliver.
You might feel excitement, happiness and pride to be a big boy now.
But there might be days when you feel sad,
a bit alone or even angry about
the upcoming changes.
You should know that Mum is there for you to talk about it and answer all your questions.
What makes you feel happy about Kindergarten?
And what not? Let‘s talk about it!
Do you know how the Kindergarten building looks like, Oliver?
Is it a smaller building with a glassdoor, you can take a look in from the outside? Or maybe it has a gate you need to enter before you can catch a glance.
Does it have a garden or a yard for you and the other children to play outside?
Here you can colour the background and draw your Kindergarten building!
Come, let's get the crayons out,
Oliver...
This is a photo of your
Kindergarten.
It is called
What do you like about it?
And what does Mum like about it?
She is very excited about the new place as well.
Maybe you had the chance to visit it already.
If so, how did it feel for you?
Or is a visit planned within the next weeks?
The building, playing corners, kitchen and bathrooms look and feel new
to you, right? That is absolutely normal, Oliver.
It will not take long, and everything will feel familiar for you. What makes you excited about it?
Does Mum remember her own time at Kindergarten when she was a child? Let her tell you everything about it!
And once she has finished sharing her own experiences with you: go and explore the walking path from your home to the Kindergarten building.
Then you are prepared on your first day, and you know already what to expect!
Mum can show you all options on how to get there
and what you need to take care of along the way.
Maybe there are streets to cross and traffic lights to watch out for.
Ooops, how does that
work again?
Do you see yourself
crossing the street, and do you find yourself waiting at the traffic light?
We have lost all colours of the traffic lights,
and now we need your help adding
the correct colours.
So, Oliver...
Which colour is on while waiting and
which one is on while crossing the road?
Your crayons are needed again!
Hmmm, what do you need to take with you to Kindergarten?
Mum can help you here.
Maybe you can choose before which bag you want to take? What to put inside?
Perhaps you want to put something familiar inside the bag, which reminds you
of home – like a photo or something small from your toybox.
Then you can always have a look at it when you feel like it,
knowing that you are loved and cared for.
Or you all decide for a little symbol to be drawn on the palm of your hands – a star or a heart, for example.
Then you all can charge it in the morning by holding each other‘s hands, and throughout the day, you can press the symbol on your hand whenever you feel like receiving a quick, imaginative hug!
And why don‘t you think about what you want to wear on your 1st day of Kindergarten?
Maybe your favourite clothes?
Let Mum tell you
how the day
will look like:
who is joining
you on the way? What will you do after the first session at Kindergarten?
What will you have
for lunch or dinner?
The first day will be a special day! All of you will have fond memories of this day.
How would a perfect
first day
look for you?
What will put a big smile
on your face at the end
of that day?

This book is designed for children ages 2 to 5, with engaging stories and illustrations that are perfect for young readers and little ones listening along. The personalization makes it an enjoyable experience for the whole family to share. That being said, we have had parents or relatives who bought personalized books for older kids, and they still enjoyed them as they were such unique and personal gifts.

It typically takes 3-4 working days for production and shipping. Shipping can take from 1 working day to over 1 week, depending on the destination country and the shipping method chosen at checkout. You can choose between Express Couriers such as DHL or FedEx and slower, but more affordable options with local post.

Mistakes happen, and our first book arrived with a small dent from shipping. What impressed me most was how quickly Cukibo handled the situation. They sent a new book right away, and it was absolutely perfect. Great experience overall!
