Reception friendships help

My daughter started Reception this year.

She’s made a variety of friends, which is brilliant, but seems to mainly be in a group of 3 girls.

Thing is, the moms of the other two girls seem to spend a lot of time together outside of school now, but don’t invite mine to any of their play dates etc. I feel very sad about it... I did try to get invited along once and it was all very awkward, they didn’t want us to come. I’m worried about her being left out.

Aibu to worry that she’s going to get left out and encourage her to play with other people? Or should I not be spending any time thinking about this, because it will all sort itself out? As you can probably tell, she’s my first to go to school- this is all new to me, and I didn’t expect this sort of thing to be rearing it’s head so soon!

Have a play date at yours?
Maybe just with one of them though!
Don’t stress to much my DD has barely been on any play dates and she’s 7.
If they play at school and she’s happy you should be too.

That’s exactly what I wanted to hear! And it’s great to hear that you’ve got a happy child who doesn’t have many play dates - I’m worried that I’m not doing enough, maybe I just don’t need to for her to be happy.
