My daughter has also joined a playgroup for a few times. She did not listen to instructions and did not like to sit down either. When the others were singing together or listening to a story, she went away to play what she likes. But the teacher said that I must not let her do so. I must try to make her do what the others are doing. She said it doesn't matter if she cries. Last Saturday, I was glad to see that she had improvement.
