[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My kid basically wanted to try something new every year. Nothing has “stuck” and she is a sixth grader. It is fine!! She’s a great kid that is currently trying Battle of the Books and Model UN. She likes both a lot, but next year she could easily say “meh, I want to try something else.” And we will be happy to let her try new stuff.

I can easily see her college application essay being something like “I’m one of the rare kids that is a generalist.” And she will be fine.[/quote]

6 grade! I have a 1st grader and I'm hoping he will find a couple things he'll want to stick with SOON. Coordinating new things (schedules, driving around, just getting acquainted with new activities and new parents, etc.) is kind of tough for this introvert! [/quote]

Even if my a miracle your kid sticks with something at 1st grade, you will still have the same level of coordination.  Practice times and locations can change by the season.  Games and tournaments can be anywhere.  Everything becomes more frequent as they get older.  The once a week practice is now 3x per week. [/quote]
