[quote=Anonymous]OP Here- DD is 9 years old. We have done the pick one sport or activity a season, but it's been pulling teeth and is not instilling a habit of physical fitness, but rather reinforcing the dislike for the sport and feeling that she is not good at something. We are maintaining a dance class, but one hour a week is not enough. I do "force" small bits of exercise - walking the dog, doing a dance video, doing yoga with me and appreciate the other ideas suggested. We are really looking for ways to increase her confidence so that maybe she'll enjoy activity more. If she struggled in reading like she struggles with PE, we'd get her extra help... not sure how to do that with physical activity. (Her first quarter report card was great, but PE had a comment that she struggled with basic skills). Thanks for all the suggestions, keep them coming.[/quote]
