[quote=Anonymous]So our DD is a rising 4th grader and we are trying to figure out if we are limiting get to much. She does great on school, but she wants to do more activities during the school year and we are not sure how does handle it.

So can folks post their weekly schedules? We're are also curious about playdate etiquette at this age? We are major introverts and really didn't coordinate playdates when she was younger, and now she uses older she is asking to meet up with friends more. Do kids talk or email each other at this age or is it still parents to parents? And WHEN do they meet with friends if they have activities most weekdays -- playdates before practice, dinner with friends after practice or just no socializing outside of activities during week?

We both work so weekends are generally family only time -- do kids have playdates often at this age?

Our situation

We both work and DD is in SACC.  we are terrible at carpooling b/c we are introverts and don't have any nearby classmates

Sun - Church, errands, prepare week
Mon - Afternoon playdate or homebody
Tues - Sport practice
wed - Instrument Lesson
thur - Afternoon playdate or homebody
Fri - Club activity 
Sat - math turoring, sport game, family outing (hike, museum, dinner), and of course chores we skip during work week

What we are  thinking of adding is the club and math turoring[/quote]
