About the book: 2010 / Adaptation is an adaptive reaction based on the instinct of self-preservation, which involves avoiding dangerous, unfavorable situations. Separation from the family, placement in an isolated children's environment with one adult performing the functions of both a teacher and a supervisor, and even in a completely unfamiliar environment, turns out to be just such a situation for a child. What can parents do, on the one hand, and educators, on the other? and kindergarten directors, in order to help the child develop self-regulatory mechanisms that will allow him to adapt to new conditions, maintain vigor and health, and become successful and happy in his preschool life?
