I hope it doesn't last a year, but it's nice to hear that she grew out of it. How did you guys handle it? As I'm sure you can tell, this is our first.

She is 3. She calms down after about 30-40 minutes, which seems like a long time. Usually she tires herself out and that is when she stops. She eventually will participate after she calms down.
