Ds was 3 in September and has been eligible for 12.5 hours a week.
He and one other boy at playgroup (as far as I can tell) are the only ones (2.5 and upwards)now not attending nursery.
No-one's pressurising me (much!) to start him except the HV who (although great with health issues) seems to be implying that I'm hindering him socially. Other mums do seem very surprised when I say I'm waiting until he's 4.
He has playgroup twice a week and a preschool music class as well as going round to friends houses. We're in Scotland so he'll start school in August 2007,a month before he turns 5, so will have been in nursery for a year previous to that.
I thought boys in particular were meant to benefit from starting formal education later?

Has anyone else not sent their child to nursery until 4?
