[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This is very common in DC. “Impromptu” is not something most people do here. Ask your kid to ask their friends what group activities they do (swim at X, soccer class at 10am through Y, etc) and then try to join some of those classes. You and other parents will be waiting around for the kids in the classes and chat then. People are very friendly, but yes, we sign up for weekend activities in 4 month chunks in advance [/quote] Depends on your neighborhood. We have plenty of impromptu stuff fir the ES kids. Get together with neighbors and go to the park at 7 to hang out with some kids we know. One parent takes the kids to the bus stop and we got to know the group that way. I also invited at least 10 kids from my DDs class this year for a planned weeknight or weekend playdate (some multiple) to foster friendships. [/quote]
