[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]No. It’s better for kids not to be in structured activities before age of 7. https://www.edweek.org/teaching-learning/study-too-many-structured-activities-may-hinder-childrens-executive-functioning/2014/07?fbclid=IwAR1TQlJckfXLFd3y-dHSuXZl6Jb1ql2M1YqG_YR98bFoXZFqwvaUWJyADlA I might make an exception if my child really wanted to do something but absent that will not be signing her up for any. [/quote] No. It's better for kids not to be overwhelmed with structured activities. Nothing there says that rec soccer with 1 practice and 1 game per week is going to hinder your kid. [/quote] Still they are completely unnecessary. [/quote]
