[quote=Anonymous]Yes, we’ve become good friends with other families largely through team sports. Most of our weekends are spent at some sort of ball field, so that is where we initially spent time with and got to know other parents. We have 2 sporty boys so a lot of their good friends have come from their teams.

This branched out into inviting families over for bbqs and eventually to couples’ hang outs, vacations together, etc. I think it helps living somewhere almost all the kids attend the neighborhood school together, so our kids have a lot of friends in our neighborhood or walk/bikeable from our house. I went to private school growing up so everyone was scattered in different parts of town, which made after school or casual/impromptu get togethers harder. Whereas now it’s easy to see our friends and arrange play dates for the kids with little scheduling since we’re all close by. The family we’ve become closest with lives 3 doors down (we were in a COVID bubble together and have kids the same ages), so it’s super convenient.[/quote]
