I'm not sure whether to send my child to daycare tomorrow or not. The only symptom is a runny nose. The child is feeling well. We're staying home today.

Why would you take your child to preschool if they have a runny nose?

Your runny nose will pass, and you'll be back to leading soon.

It depends on the color of their mucus. If it's green, I definitely keep them at home. For the rest, I take them to kindergarten.

I didn't torment the child. I was recovering and carrying on.

I wouldn't take my child out if they have a fever, green, thick mucus that makes it hard to breathe, and a barking cough. Otherwise, why not take them out, especially since the child is already big and can blow their nose.

If yesterday the nose was dry and there were sniffles on the first day, that could be the first sign of a cold. In that case, no—do not send the child in and just monitor their condition.
If your child has already had it and is still dealing with a runny nose in the second week as a lingering symptom, then yes.
I would first determine the cause of the sniffles. For example, consider an at-home IgE test—perhaps it’s an allergy.

In general, there’s always a parade of sniffles at the kindergarten. Parents seem to be focused on other things, and kids who went in with sniffles keep going in with sniffles.

There's no point in just sitting there.

At my friend's kindergarten, they allow children to come in with a runny nose, but here we’re strict—if they notice, they’ll call the parents and the child will be sent home. Honestly, I’d also bring my child with a runny nose, because I’m tired of taking sick days every week, since other parents bring sniffly kids to the kindergarten.
