I know that several provinces now have full-day Kindergarten. For those of us who still have half-day, it can be tough to know what to do with Kindergarten students. However, you have to keep in mind that in most cases, you are still feeding them lunch and at least one snack. If the child is in afternoon kindergarten, you might even be offering them two snacks if you give them something after school. And even though it may only seem like the child is with you part time, when you consider the amount of time they are with you either before school (if in the morning class) or after school (if in the afternoon) class, they are often there much longer than just part-time (possibly up to 6 hours a day). You also have to consider all the days that they will want full-time care because of there being no school. And these days, it seems like every couple of weeks they have a day off (at least). My daughter had 5 days off from school this month! So two Kindergarten kids can't really even share a day if they expect to come full days when there is no school. It is for all these reasons that many daycare providers in my areas still charge the full-time rate (or close to it) for kindergarten students. And I think many parents are understanding of this.
