My kid is in a club twice a week so it seems like he's in many activities on paper, but if I had to add those club activities as an additional "drive 20 minutes across town after school, wait for an hour, and drive 20 minutes home in the dark," I wouldn't allow that many sign ups.
None. Our school doesn’t offer any activities

I have one kid who does something every weekday. All weekday activities are after school clubs, except for one class I have to drive her to. She does one class on the weekends. The after-school stuff is only for part of the semester anyway.

8 year old does soccer fall and spring twice a week. Nothing else yet.
10 year old does fitness class once a week, instrument twice a week, play rehearsals once or twice a week, art once a week.
We are at a parochial school where all the extracurricular start in 4th.

DS8
Fall & Spring: Baseball 2X week Soccer 2X week 1 game per sport per weekend
Winter: 6 weeks of flag football 1 x during the week; Ski Team on weekends (yes we travel locally every weekend for ski team)
I have the sports crazy kid who wants to do even more sports. We would love to get him into an instrument or some sort of singing (He has a nice voice and likes music a lot) but he refuses thus far.

DCs enjoy all activities and don’t want to quit any of them.
What kind of swim team only meets once per week? Not a criticism, asking because DS9 kind of wants to join, but twice a week plus meets seems like a lot. Is violin/piano from the same teacher, back to back?
Check out swim with Beth, Fairfax fox swim club, centreville swim club, and moons aquatics swim club, they all offers once a week swim option. DCs have violin & piano classes, each 1x /weekly from different teachers.
