What does your daughter prefer? Does she want to be in the main service now? And if she will be moving into the adult service later this year, anyway, and likes children's church, should you just let her enjoy the last few services and not worry about integrating her early? I'm sure she will do just fine, even if she has to wait a couple more months.
If your daughter likes to be in the adult service, and the children's church won't allow latecomers (for whatever reason--and I think that's weird), then just let her choose which service to be in, until she's too old to attend children's church.

We were told that it is disruptive for the teacher to have to "reteach" the lesson, I told them that they didn't have to "reteach" the lesson, but they are opposed to it, so we will keep her with us.
We were asked many times why she doesn't go, and we have explained it repeatedly. (I do need to insert here, that a majority of our congregation is in their 50's, and so most of the kids are grand kids), maybe that is why the dis-connect.
I was just wondering what other churches were doing.
