[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Preschool once a week activities- gymboree, group swim lessons, soccer class, basketball class, dance class, music class, etc.  When my oldest was 5 I realized how crazy it was to do 4-5 activities a week that cost anywhere from 65 to 90 dollars a month. I had been spending 300 dollars a month on activities and classes for the previous two years and 200 dollars a month from ages 2 to 3.  I went back and looked how much I spent one rainy day and it came out to almost 12,000 dollars! I didn't send my youngest to any classes and put the 12,000 dollars into a 529 for him. [/quote]

Yep. They don't remember any of it until they are older. A family member of mine spends a ton on sports for her two year old.... waste of money. [/quote]

I don't think it was a waste but they add up.  We always did gymnastics and for the gross motor skills I found it good.  Karate for little ones has been a huge waste and we are dropping it.  Love it but not for $40 a class for group classes plus testing.  [/quote]

What age was a waste for karate? Considering signing up my 4 year old[/quote]

Waste at that age if it costs much of anything. [/quote]
