How to survive a dance competition- help

[Bibblybumblebee]

DD has her first dance competition tomorrow.

It’s all day - 9 hours

Any dance parents out there with any advice?

My DD is doing a couple of dances but will probably only be dancing about 5% of that time - we can’t leave we have to stay the entire time.

Im taking a book, iPad and some snacks

advice would be appreciated 😅

Warn your dd not to be fazed by the competitive show-offs in the warm-up area. 😂

At the end of the day, it is just one person's opinion at one moment in time, and they are there because they like watching children dance. Just tell her to have fun, and you are hugely proud of her no matter what.
