[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Can you sign them up for a tennis class together or can they do free swim at a pool a few afternoons a week or in the weekends? The library sometimes has kids book groups if that’s more their speed. At a certain point it seems counter productive to force activities. [/quote] My youngest was happiest doing things with me and family members. We would go play tennis. I taught her. You don’t need lessons unless you want to be competitive. We went swimming together in our smallish pool and I did endless swimming laps to see who’s faster. Weekends we would do activities together. At 11 yrs old she found that she really likes basketball and plays about 4x week and will go to basketball camps for 4 weeks. She started walking with her friend after school to the park. There’s no need to worry if they’re happy. Give them time to see what they enjoy as they get older. [/quote]
