[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I know this thread is about sports, but is anyone shelling out a lot of money on stuff like music lessons, art, acting, dance, etc? Just curious. [/quote] We pay about 2K/yr on private music lessons per child. And instruments, materials (string, reeds, etc), and music add on to that. Then one child attends a music based summer camp that runs around 2K/yr. We're probably close to 8K/yr for both kids music costs. My children also take art and art classes run around 1K/yr per child. One of my children attends camps at the local art college, which run about another 1K/yr. Then there are materials, which as long as they're just sketching with pencils is trivial, but once they get picky about paints and colored pencils can skyrocket. We probably don't exceed 4K/yr there. OTOH, one of my children just discovered film photography (Thanksgiving with older relatives can be dangerous!) so our $ outlay for art may be about to increase.[/quote]
