[quote=Anonymous]I didn’t grow up with as many activities as kids today, but I did some. When I think back, I can’t think of any value that the early structured activities really gave to me long-term. I got much more out of my unstructured time — both with other kids in the neighborhood (the games we organized!) and alone. Even things like private music lessons — I appreciate knowing a little bit more about music today, but when I think back, their biggest value was in my getting myself to/from lessons rather than the lessons themselves. By high school, the structured activities had more meaning and staying power for me. [/quote]
