I need some advice please. I've accepted some summer kids until my regular ones come back in September. It has been such a pain, I'm tempted to change my teacher policy for next summer. However, that's not the point of this thread.
One of the families I accepted has a one year old boy and his older sister. The boy looks like he'll transition fine, but the older girl wouldn't leave her parents at all during the interview. She clearly wanted to play but she wouldn't. I wasn't too worried at that point, but when they were leaving (on their way to swimming lessons) I said "have fun at swimming!" The dad replied "she won't. She won't even get into the pool without us"
So now I'm worried. I've had really easy transitions with all my one year olds and two year olds. I've never had a three year old start. And I guess I've never had a kid this shy either. Any tips?
