[quote=Anonymous]My kids take religious education one day a week because we send them to public school, not religious school. That is important for our culture and religious beliefs. They also do winter swim instead of swim lessons which is one hour a week on Sunday. My older son does travel soccer and it is year round with no option to do one semester. He doesn't do futsal but it is 3x a week, plus games. Now it is lacrosse season and my boys do lacrosse 2x a week. My younger son does cultural dance. That is 1x a week. My kids also walk to the school playground to meet up with friends, build forts in the park, go to the library for a role playing game, play basketball and ride bikes or walk to friends' houses. We don't arrange formal play dates. They don't really watch TV and play video games. When we don't have sports in the summer, we do swim team at our pool and go hiking. My husband feels the same way as the OP but the kids I was given are joiners who enjoy sports and being part of something. [/quote]
