Excerpt from Lesson Material on Care of the Preschool Child: No. 1-9
Children grow rapidly in the years between the second and fifth or sixth birthdays. Consequently changes in health and in behavior come quickly. So the preschool child should have a health examina tion at least every six months. In this way a physical defect can be caught before it gets serious or a bad behavior habit checked before it is beyond control. If your child has not been having frequent examinations, it is advisable that he be examined in the Spring or early summer before entering school so that corrections can be made before school opens. It is desirable that he enter school as nearly physically perfect as possible. This would mean a great saving in time, money, and anxiety for everyone, for it would prevent much of the sickness among school children. It would also help to limit the number of little ones who have to repeat the first grade because of absence for such things as colds and toothache, or because they do not see the blackboard easily or do not hear all that the other children are able to hear.
