Adjustment time

[MarycleMom]

I am planning on putting my almost 3 yr. old daughter in the kids club instead of Flounders. Recently, she has become very shy around new people. I know from reading the board that this will be on a trial basis. How are the counselors with letting the kids get used to new enviroment? I fully expect her to cry, but at the gym where I go she is usually ok within 5 minutes max.
(BTW, yes she is potty trained and is just 2 weeks short of her 3rd bday when we sail)

It honestly depends on the child. My DD was 3 when we first cruised and also cried for the mandatory 10 seconds after I dropped her off at PS. I stood out in the hall & counted down. She would only go to the club one time however. She fussed when we suggested going back...and DD5 had been moved down to be with her. Your DD could have a completely different experience. We went on the cruise not expecting her to go to the club at all...so she did surprise us & spent an hour there during dinner. We didn't get upset or even schedule Palo.
