How many extracurricular activities do your DC participate in?
And how old are your dc? DD1 (newly 5) previously did gymnastics and swimming. We stopped both when DD2 was born (too crazy!) and while we moved. It's been almost a year since she last participated in an extracurricular activity and both she and I want to get started again. The problem is, she wants to do everything! She has asked to do soccer, ballet, karate, gymnastics, and swimming. I'm trying to encourage her to pick one, but I feel so guilty. She is very excited and energetic and needs to move, but I cannot figure out how to fit everything in. She is at prek from 8:30 am to 5 or 5:30 pm 5 days/week and we often don't get home until 6. Basically our only time we have for any of these activities is the weekend. Doing two activities in one day or one each day is exhausting for me, but I'm willing to try. Any advice or suggestions?
