My almost 3 year old daughter is extremely shy we have been going to a little gym class every Saturday for several months and it still takes her 20 minutes or so to warm up enough to interact with the teacher and other kids. We see my in-laws once a month and with the exception of my FIL, it takes her a while to warm up there too. She does a little better if shes at her own house but even that can take some time. Her twin brother and 5 year old brother are the exact opposite both very outgoing and talkative. My daughter loves princesses, especially Elsa, Anna, and Ariel. We have several character meals booked and Im wondering how to handle her interactions with the characters. I have visions of her burying her head in my shoulder and not interacting with them at all which is fine, Im certainly not going to force her to do anything but I also dont want her to be terrified. The trip is going to be a surprise for the kids, and given their ages the twins wouldnt understand the concept of were going to Disney in xx days but is there anything I can do to help prepare her for the character interaction?
