[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We generally let them pick 3 activities a season - so if one of those is year round, they have two more slots they can fill. There is some overlap and we don’t make it to every practice or game but do as much as possible. I don’t steer them towards anything in particular, they are 1st and 3rd and I’ll happily take them to whatever interests them. Right now they don’t want to learn an instrument so we don’t have lessons. Last Fall it was chess club, rec soccer and flag football. This Fall it will be club soccer, baseball and hopefully a Lego class if they offer an after school one. [/quote] Similarly, we told our rising second grader two sports plus one artistic thing (in addition to scouts which isn't a huge time commitment for us). If it were up to her, there'd be at least one extra thing there, but that's what we can manage financially and seems reasonable.[/quote]
