I’m all for children developing at their own pace but he’s 4.5 years old. I normally start putting on the normal swing from around 2.5! I can’t imagine she’ll even be able to lift him in and out of the baby swing for much longer.Errr ‘trying out’ the big swing?! He’s 4! He’s not a baby Emily!
He’ll be one of the oldest in his class come September but will probably be the neediest one out of the group. Does he do anything himself? Getting dressed? Using the toilet? She doesn’t even let him walk to the post office without a pushchair. It’s a shame as I think giving little ones a bit of independence is so good for their confidence and self belief.
