When thinking about your child’s first day of school, it’s not unusual to feel overwhelmed. Kids (and indeed parents) often go back and forth between feelings of denial and acceptance.

Between finishing up summer activities and shopping for new clothes and school supplies, often the big day arrives before they know it!
