[quote=Anonymous]Yeah I think this depends a lot on your kid, your family situation, and various external circumstances around what they would be doing with their time otherwise. A kid who doesn't go to aftercare (or whose activity is during it) will still have some downtime outside of the activity. We don't do a lot of activities but I really enjoy my 2 kids spending time together because this is a phase where they do that well. We also have a bunch of neighbors whose kids we play with pretty frequently so that's nice about being home and I think it's valuable too. So I feel like there are big downsides to too many activities for us personally.[/quote]
