[quote=Anonymous]I don't view enrichment as a way to get my child ahead. I consider art and music and sports to be forms of enrichment too. I use the term enrichment to refer to out-of-school time for my kid that actual benefits them. So a bare-bones aftercare program that just put kids in a room with a movie and coloring sheets is not enrichment, but an after school art club or cross-country team or a sitter who will take my kid on a hike and talk about bugs is enrichment. Enrichment is literally just something that enriches my child's life. That could be academically but it could be something else, too. It's not about getting them into advanced classes and getting a jump on college applications. It's about leading a rich life full of meaning and interest.[/quote]
