Every parent wants to be close to their child - to truly understand their world, not just hear about it. Yet many parents wonder: How can I really step into my child’s shoes? How can I see what they see, feel what they feel? At Sky International Preschool, we believe the answer lies in experiencing life from your child’s perspective.
Many Parents want to be close to their Child but don’t know how
Most parents deeply want to be present with their child, to truly connect and understand them.
But daily life is busy, and sometimes “being there” can feel like just checking boxes, asking how school was, seeing the drawings they bring home, or getting quick updates from teachers.
Why Perspective Matters?
Children see the world in ways we often forget. For them, a classroom isn’t just a room it’s a place where stories unfold, friendships bloom, and discoveries happen every day.
When parents can experience that world for themselves, they move from simply knowing about their child’s day to truly understanding how their child thinks, feels, and learns.
How to Truly See From Your Child’s Perspective
Here are a few ways parents can begin to see the world through their child’s eyes:
- Get on their level - Sit, kneel, or crouch when you join them. You’ll literally see the world from their eye level.
- Follow their lead - Let your child guide the play. Be curious with them, ask questions, and explore together.
- Slow down - Notice the small details children notice: the sound of water, the color of leaves, the way blocks fit together.
- Celebrate the process - Value the messy, in-progress moments as much as the final outcome.
At Sky, we want parents to connect with their child and our school in the most meaningful way.
Every school year, Sky International Preschool have Parent Evening - designed to give you exactly this experience.
Instead of a formal meeting or report, you will:
- Play, explore, and create the same way your child does every day.
- See the classroom through their eyes, what they build, touch, and imagine everyday
- Hear stories from teachers that help connect what you see with your child’s unique learning journey.
- Leave inspired with practical ideas to nurture curiosity and connection at home.
At Sky International Preschool, we believe Parent Evening is where parents and schools can connect deeply. And more than that, it is where you, as a parent, feel a true sense of belonging to the Sky community together we will build the future of our children together.
