On Mondays he has tennis from 16.00-17.00 and football from 17.30-19.30. My daughter is fourteen and she also has TaeKwondo training on Monday from 20.00-21.30. She also has TaeKwondo on Wednesdays and horseriding on Thursdays. My son has football on Wednesdays and Fridays as well (not every week). They play matches on Saturday mornings outdoors irrespective of weather!!
Connor shall soon have three after school activities and I'm wondering if that is too many for a child two months shy of seven?
All of his are independant of school and I'm hoping that way, he makes some friends outside of the playground.
I just don't want him to reach burnout... but at the same time, I don't want him to miss out! Does that make sense? Two of the activities are sport related and the other is Beavers (which he is so excited about!).
