Judy,
The answer to that is different for every child. All children develop at different speeds and have different needs. If you're the mom, you know your child best. No one can answer that for you.
But BEFORE your child goes to Kindergarten, you need to make sure he/she is ready. Your child needs to have listening skills down, have conquered separation anxiety, spell his or her name, and needs to be able to get along with other groups of children. If you can accomplish those things for your child without sending him or her to pre-K, then GOOD FOR YOU! But if you can't, I'd suggest getting him by age 4, even if only for 3 days a week to get him/her started on what he/she will need to be successful in life.
