My 2 and a half year old is very seld driven. He pays attention to a task only when it interests him. He can sit through many books at home but at the library he is constantly on the move looking and handling other things in the room.
Does this get any better with age? I am worried about preschool.
Yes my kids have been and one is still this way. They are very dynamic.
And yes, people have been like this:
Most people are undersatnding but there are two mothers that get on my nerves.....looking at my kid as if he's weird. It doesn't help that he is the size of a 4 year old either.
It's pretty annoying to get the annoyed looks, but as long as your child isn't disrupting the reading I wouldn't take him out of the room. I have definitely pulled my kids out of things like this when I think they are going too far for regular folks.
We do a lot of hanging out a the play places at malls and things like that during the winter months. I have been there early in the morning and found myself there with parents of 10 other little boys and zero girls, so that might be a factor too!
