[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The honest answer is that most people don't. Youngest kid doesn't know any different and can't talk to complain, so … [/quote]

Yep.   I have 4 kids and the only time the younger 3 got to take "classes" like Gymboree, is when their older sibling was in preschool.   For a very short time when it was just our older two, we did "classes" on weekends so the one parent could stay with each child.  [/quote]

Yep. Classes for an 18 month old are a first/only child thing for the most part. [/quote]

This! My first had one activity per day - baby gym, music, toddler art, science, preschool prep. He did it all.

Second child did none. Second child did go to way more interesting outings like zoos, museums and aquariums. Second child is more athletic than older child and started sports early.

I now have a third child. My older kids are in school. We have done some trial classes but I haven’t signed her up for anything. We do library time, meet my friends for lunch, go to nature centers and playgrounds. She starts preschool in the fall.[/quote]
