Childrens church question

I homeschool my 4 year old and I have her pre-k year all planned out. We do a daily bible lesson everyday during the week. We also attend church most Sundays. I have been getting comments from family members about me not putting her in the children's church. They tell me that she's old enough to go and that it would be good for the both of us. My argument is I feel like she can learn from us modeling proper church etiquette, manners, and worship when she sits in the congregation with us. My husband has started to say that we should maybe put her in children's church so she can be with kids and socialize.

Personally I feel that a church sermon isn't the place to be worrying about children's socialization. Am I wrong for thinking this way? Is my daughter missing out by me not putting her through the children's church?

What is your take and what do you personally do with your own family?

Thank you in advance for your insight!
