Would your nearly 3 yr old do this?

I'm just curious, really.

On holiday in a house he doesn't know (been to once before as a baby but he doesn't remember it), nearly 3 yr old DS opted to sleep in a different room to DH and I, rather than in a bed in the same room.

He's an independent little thing, but I'm just wondering how many other children would have made the same choice at that age?

Both mine moved into their own room at 6 months. Sometimes shared with each other on holiday if there weren't enough rooms. I wouldn't have given them the choice to share with us.

They always surprise you.
I thought we'd have games when our 3yo moved out of his brother's room into his own room.
As it was he skipped in, happy as Larry with 'his room' & hasn't looked back.

In unfamiliar places they normally share but that's mainly for my eldest's benefit!

My almost 3yo would always rather be with us but would (usually) happily sleep in a different room. Happily goes to his own bed at home.
I wouldn't think it's indicative of anything worrying either way so don't panic :)

Yes. My eldest just could not sleep with an adult in the room, at all. It made me a bit sad, to be honest.

Does he sleep in a separate room at home? That would indicate separate rooms being his 'norm'

All but one of mine would have done the same. They were in their own rooms from around 12 months, except the youngest little shite who slept in my bed until she was 7
