At this age, fine motor skills (like early writing) and attention span are still developing. Some difficulty in following structured class activities is common, especially in the first few months of school. Being able to respond to questions indicates good receptive and expressive language skills. Screen exposure while eating or frequently at this age can reduce attention span, affect classroom focus, and delay development of self-regulation. Limiting screen time is recommended.
Next Steps
Observation and structured support at home and school may be sufficient at this stage. Early developmental or psychiatric evaluation can be considered if difficulties persist or interfere with learning and social skills. Limiting screen time, encouraging fine motor activities (drawing, blocks, puzzles), and short, structured learning sessions can help
Health Tips
At 3.8 years old and just starting school, occasional difficulty with writing and attention is often normal. However, monitoring progress over time is important. Formal evaluation by a child psychiatrist, developmental pediatrician, or child psychologist may be considered if concerns continue or increase.
