No. They only have two activities, and those are still ongoing (albeit online). That is the right amount for our family.

I'm so grateful in particular for the investment we have made over the past few years in music, because hearing the kids practice and enjoy their instruments during this time has brought a lot of joy into our home.

Nope.
My daughter (7) has Hebrew school on Sundays and dance twice a week. My son (4) has dance, music, and gymnastics once a week. They really miss their classes, but they can still entertain themselves at home, without screens. Seriously, they have been playing for five solid hours today. It's great, they love it, and I know they are getting a lot out free play. But they will be thrilled when they can go back to their organized classes as well.
