[quote=Anonymous]My child is in 3rd grade and we have been doing evening activities since Pre-K. Evening meaning starting at 5. Like a pp, when we don't have activities, we wouldn't necessarily look for any family fun ways to fill the time anyway. We don't do tv or computer during the weekday so that is not an option and I can't play with my child for hours at the end of the day - no energy, housework, work for work, etc. I also noticed that by last year in 2nd grade kids began to get "good" at certain sports and the teams stopped teaching the basics as much by that age because the expectation was the child already would know how to play. I think that puts kids just starting out later at a serious disadvantage so I am glad we started sports in the earlier years. Even if my child doesn't stick with it she will know the basics.[/quote]
