DD is 4, only just her birthday was 3 weeks ago. She started in reception this week. She has not been keen, very anxious, lots of tears, wants to go back into nursery.
As well as this crying, the last two mornings have been screaming meltdowns over uniform. She hates uniform. She refused to wear any uniform in preschool (attached to same school) so not a new issue. She is funny about clothes and will only wear leggings and a select few t-shirts. She even had a phase of refusing to wear short sleeve tops, even in the heat wave!
On the one hand I am inclined to buy her some uniform colour leggings (navy) and let her wear them, as she is so little and has so much already to contend with.
On the other hand should I be battling to enforce the uniform? I have tried getting soft trousers, but she refuses them too (although on being put in the car in her knickers this morning she agreed to wear them.
We have done the "take her in her pants" many, many times before and it doesn't make a difference. She will eventually get dressed at school, but it doesn't stop her screaming refusal in the morning.
