Here is also a bit like that, kids in preschool start to write and spell the first words, my boy is 3yo and it's his first year in kindergarten and they already learn a few words in English. Me as a kid never went to kindergarten or preschool, my days were spent in my grandma and I would play all day with other kids outside and i had a very happy childhood and never felt like I was behind in school in regard to other kids that went to preschool. Nowadays i feel some parents overbook their children with tasks and extracurricular activities even later ages. I don't want that, Im more concerned that he plays and that he can spend time outside. About my hopes, on a pratical side, I hope he learns how to cook and how to dance since I can't none of them. I also hope he learns agriculture, some basic construction and coding. On a broader perspective I just hope my boy grows happy, that he becomes a good human being, a good person with good values, that he can reason well and be curious to question and learn things, I hope he has enough maturity to be open and to deal with his emotions and not be afraid to be himself.
