Well, so far I really needn't have worried. I made sure to sit everyone down at a circle time once everyone arrived and show what cool new things ___ has! And how they help her hear even better, that we mustn't touch the ear things or the string so we can all help Kori hear better. They all had a look and quickly wanted to get back to the felt story. They haven't bothered since around her ears. I love at about kids; back to playing as usual. I do notice a big negative behaviour change in her over the summer...you can tell that she's not been in any kind of setting where she's had to share over the summer and is now miss Drama Queen. Could be her age but also, I would suspect she has been rather coddled (understandable). So, I think it's going to be a good thing for her to get back into our structure.
