Personally.....i always thought ppl have their kids in too much too soon. (It's funny to see a 6 month old playing
t-ball! HAHA)
There is plenty time for sports and clubs and extra circular...in my opinion
That being said.....my kids entered the arena of sports much later in life and.....uhmmmm, uh 🙊kinda sucked. Lol....i say that in the most loving way.
Then....then....they yelled at me saying....why didn't you put me in dance?
🙄always the mom's fault..lol
My daughter is taking her first ballet class as a sophomore in college. 💕
I don't regret my decisions....if they would had shown interest at the time....i would have considered it.
Those times go by sooooo fast....just enjoy them....whatever you decide to do❤

@Thinking2much you did good on your decisions 🤗 it would be very funny seeing a 6 month old in tball 😂 i have an almost 3 year old and an almost 2 year old and a 6 month old actually 😂 i only have my oldest in gymnastics and dont really plan on anything else for awhile for her unless she decides to want to do another she absolutely loves gymnastics or the toddler version at least she throws a bit of a fit when its time to leave

In my personal experience - you're right!!! Too many parents look at involving their kids in TOO MANY activities - almost looking at those activities as babysitters. We have always limited our kids to 1-2 activities per half year. Only one sport at a time - and dance for the two who enjoyed dance.

@Thinking2much I agree, and why do the coaches always seem like the loudest, obnoxious yellers at the kids. Especially THEIRS!?
