[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think that I just don't understand why kids at earlier and earlier ages would even want organized sports over free play? The few activities I did were great and fun, but I would never have wanted them over free play or hang out time with friends.[/quote] It really depends on the kid and the activity. Mine hasn’t felt the need to pursue every activity we put him in, but he is very gungho about 1 sport and 1 musical activity. I’m sure these activities could shift and his interests could change, but I don’t feel the need to ban him from taking instrument lessons or make him choose between music and sport. He’s been pursuing both for a year and insists he wants to keep on for a long time. Re free play… I kept him out of camp one year so he could do more unstructured play. Turned out that all the other kids were busy with camp and activities. [/quote]
