Kids need routines. It gives them sense of security & help them develop discipline. At large we all are afraid of 'unknown' edges. Children fear of the unknown, from a new vegetable to a major change in life.
Play way learning
Unfortunately children are confronted with changes daily , which is a growth opportunity but stressful. The very definition of growing up is that their own body change on them
constantly.
Parent give time
Toddlers give up pacifiers, bottles, their respect as the Baby of the house. Leaving family warmth and facing new teachers, and classmates. They tackle & learn new skills and information at an astonishing pace. From learning & reading new words, street crossing and riding bike.

Very few children stay in the same house in their entire childhood. Most move several times, often to new cities, new neighborhood and school. 
Concentration-structured discipline
Children can handle changes the best if it is expected and occurs in the familiar routine, like most of adults. Predictable routine allows child to feel safe and develop sense of mastery in handling their lives. These sense of mastery is strengthened once they tackle larger changes, walking to the school, paying for the vegetable purchase, settle restaurant bills or going to the sleepaway camp.
Creativity-Imagination
Unpredictable changes like- Mom going away for an unexpected business trip, or more drastic parent divorcing or grand parent dying-erode this sense of safety ,mastery and less able to cope up with unfortunate circumstances of life.
Get to know friends
That is why we need to offer child predictable routine foundation , so that they can rise to the occasion to handle big changes when they need to. Kids who don't develop basic self care routines, from grooming to food, may find it hard to take care of themselves as young adults. Good routine allows internalize constructive habits.
We at school take care to structure discipline..........
