[QUOTE="Malika, post: 433303, member: 11227"] This is a difficult one. I think it's right that if you give too much warning, that can lead to needless and prolonged anxiety. My own judgement in similar situations is to mention the upcoming event the day before and then again in the morning. This is partly because time to a 4 year old (particularly my son, I think, who seems to have really little sense of time) is so different to an adult's, so that there is no need to give great advance warning. How is your son's sense of time? [/QUOTE]
