[quote=Anonymous]I think it is important to support each kids’ interests, and promote balance for both. Learning should be joyful. Your very advanced first grader likely needs enrichment because he will be bored out of his mind in regular public school. You can see if they will do any enrichment at school, or do CTY, AOPS, etc. It is ok to be a geek if that’s where his interest lie!! But it’s good to keep him in fun, social and sports activities. For your daughter, I wouldn’t pressure her if she is not naturally inclined to the academic. But keep an eye on the attention issues. You may want to evaluate for adhd when she’s a little older. For now, I would try to keep exposing her to fun things that are also educational. Museums, gardening, hiking, cooking, summer camps etc. all provide fun experiences that are also educational.[/quote]
