[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I wouldn’t bother signing him up for anything else unless he asks.[/quote] Be careful. Your kid might not know to "ask" you bc he might not have that logic of knowing there are options available. As parents - yes, we know low key rec league is available, how to find a nearby art class, read the email about after school running club, etc but a 5 -yr old may not know these things exist or even realize options for him. Fwiw, my Kindrrg was sad after school 1 day last year and days later when she finally opened up she told me a bunch of classmates got to go to soccer after school that day and wanted to go too. My DD didn't realize she could do it too - mom guilt for not offering her choices and re-visit said choices to double check....throwing that out there as a thought. [/quote]
