Making sure that they feel good about themselves, and also explaining to them the different ways that they are going to have fun during the school year.
I talk to them about my experiences
i let my kids pick thier fav first day of school outfit and pack them an awesome lunch with lots of goodies to share@
Talk about what will happen and make sure they have all they need.
I start talking to the kids early in the summer about missing their friends from school. We also talk about any fears they may have like if the teacher is going to be nice, if the school work will be hard, etc. Doing this has alleviated any fears they have and reassured them that their fears are normal feelings.
Familiarize them as much as possible with what is going to happen before they start school, and always be on time to pick them up.
Tell them how much fun they'll learn and that you'll be waiting to hear all about it.
tell them what to expect and make them prepared
I think letting them meet their teacher beforehand is a good idea.

I try and have my kids interact with as many friends/children as possible through out the summer. Stay in contact with as many as theirs friends as possible.

If possible, set up a play date with a child who will be in their class. It's always easier when there is a familiar (and friendly) face.
