[quote=Anonymous]I secretly played with dolls until 8 thy grade, and I was the oldest in my class. When I taught fourth grade, girls were still excited about American girls dolls, even the Wellie Wishers, which seem to be aimed at younger kids. She may be immature ( none of us have met your daughter), but it’s okay if she’s still in the doll phase. Kids connect with other kids with similar interests. Are you opposed to cheerleading? No stunts in MS, so it’s basically dance with yelling. The downside is that high school cheerleading does have stunts, so you’d need to explain to her that this is a middle school-only activity. She might also do well as a part of a really large group. Some ideas include yearbook, band, chorus, and swim team. The nice thing about swimming is that they have exhibition lanes, so nobody sits on the bench. [/quote]
