Hi
It is looking like adjustment problems as child started going to preschool since 2 weeks. As kids start playing in school with peers continuously when they come home they look tired. Because of separation stress these problems will set in. But as early as they start knowing the facts they will settle down and they will adjust. So gradually increase the time of staying in school.
