My DS recently turned 4 and has been attending nursery this year. When he started he was in with a friend from daycare who he has always been close to, attended each others birthdays etc, however my DS became quite obsessive with this child, only wanting to play with him getting upset if he won't play with my DS etc the teacher advised they have had to separate them as the other boy was becoming annoyed.
My DS seems to have moved onto a new boy and it seems similar behaviour, quite obsessive only wanting to play with that one boy, he had his party recently and was playing away with all the kids until this boy arrived and suddenly he just wanted to play with him and ignored all his friends.
They are due to be in the same reception class come September and I'm worried he'll not make any friends and this boy will get sick of the obsession leaving my DS on his own.
Is this obsessive behaviour normal at this age? Any suggestions on how to reduce the behaviour, they will see each other once a week at daycare and we've got our DS into a summer scheme with other children
