Eventually we'd like him to try baseball and basketball.</p> <p>M will probably do gymnastics and volleyball, maybe soccer.</p> <p>Honestly though whatever they'd like to try is fine by me! :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-sports-do-you-want-your-kids-to-try#post-2067524 Thu, 12 Feb 2015 21:15:29 +0000 Mrs. Bee 2067524@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>definitely karate or taekwondo for both. other than that, any team sport is fine with me! i have a soft spot for baseball though. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-sports-do-you-want-your-kids-to-try#post-2067500 Thu, 12 Feb 2015 21:07:33 +0000 artsyfartsy 2067500@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>If I could pick, Id want T to do martial arts. I'm going to enroll him when he turns 4. I hope he sticks with it!</p> <p>If we ever have a girl I really want her to do gymnastics. I take T to a baby gym class and the class before his is older kids. And all the preschool girls in their tumbling gear are so cute!!! I used to do tumbling and never stuck with it. I hope if we have a daughter she will like it. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-sports-do-you-want-your-kids-to-try#post-2067490 Thu, 12 Feb 2015 20:59:58 +0000 Mae 2067490@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I don't really care, but I'll probably push her more towards something like basketball or softball or soccer or even karate rather than cheerleading or gymnastics or dance. I know the latter are real sports full of real athletes but I worry (especially for little girls) that there is a little too much focus on being pretty rather than just doing the sport. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-sports-do-you-want-your-kids-to-try#post-2067470 Thu, 12 Feb 2015 20:45:40 +0000 mrscobee 2067470@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Soccer and basketball and gymnastics! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-sports-do-you-want-your-kids-to-try#post-2067412 Thu, 12 Feb 2015 20:15:44 +0000 hotchildinthecity 2067412@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My husband always wanted a son who played football like he did. I think J's going to be a little too small! So we're hoping for baseball. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-sports-do-you-want-your-kids-to-try#post-2067405 Thu, 12 Feb 2015 20:11:43 +0000 Canoli 2067405@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We are going to enroll him in karate which is offered at daycare and I would like them to play soccer. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-sports-do-you-want-your-kids-to-try#post-2067390 Thu, 12 Feb 2015 20:04:33 +0000 creativemomma15 2067390@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Tennis! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-sports-do-you-want-your-kids-to-try#post-2067321 Thu, 12 Feb 2015 19:20:58 +0000 regberadaisy 2067321@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I think soccer will probably be the first one because she's really good at it! And DH is a huge golf fan so if she's interested that might be in her future. Besides that I'm not sure. There's only so much time and money. I also want them to have some music lessons as well and language classes. </p> <p>Don't want them so booked up they can't be a kid!</p> <p>P. S. Oh and ballet or dance. Haha a little girl in leotard and dance tutu is too cute to not try at least once. ;) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-sports-do-you-want-your-kids-to-try#post-2067298 Thu, 12 Feb 2015 19:03:02 +0000 mediagirl 2067298@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@travelgirl1: not really. I was a wing so I didn't get in the middle of the scrum. Worst I got was a bloody nose and some good cleat mark bruises. :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-sports-do-you-want-your-kids-to-try#post-2067131 Thu, 12 Feb 2015 17:13:24 +0000 travelgirl1 2067131@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@mediagirl: :happy: Did you get injured? DH tells me horror stories about his rugby injuries! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-sports-do-you-want-your-kids-to-try#post-2067097 Thu, 12 Feb 2015 16:56:03 +0000 spaniellove 2067097@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Tennis, because I liked it so much in HS and DH played squash, and with his CIs I think any contact sport will be out for LO. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-sports-do-you-want-your-kids-to-try#post-2067070 Thu, 12 Feb 2015 16:45:04 +0000 psw27 2067070@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Whatever he likes, but hopefully soccer and swimming. I was a figure skater and my brother played hockey but they are too expensive so hopefully he doesn't want to do either. Oh and football, I don't want him playing football but if he loves it I guess I don't have a choice. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-sports-do-you-want-your-kids-to-try#post-2067057 Thu, 12 Feb 2015 16:40:09 +0000 Tanjowen 2067057@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Soccer and baseball for sure, and then see what he thinks about golf and tennis. We are hoping against hope no football because we don't watch it (and therefore do not understand it really) and I don't want to see him get tackled. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-sports-do-you-want-your-kids-to-try#post-2067055 Thu, 12 Feb 2015 16:39:48 +0000 blackbird 2067055@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Volleyball and softball! Girlfriend's gonna be tallllllll. I think. I hate soccer, personally. Hate hate hate. And hockey, which is big here. But, really, i just want her to pick something, love it, and be a badass at it. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-sports-do-you-want-your-kids-to-try#post-2067040 Thu, 12 Feb 2015 16:32:46 +0000 lawbee11 2067040@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Soccer.

Definitely a team sport as well as an individual. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-sports-do-you-want-your-kids-to-try#post-2067022 Thu, 12 Feb 2015 16:24:00 +0000 Mrs. Lemon-Lime 2067022@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Tennis and soccer.

Thankfully I am the only one in my family and his that ever played so the pressure will not be there! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-sports-do-you-want-your-kids-to-try#post-2066995 Thu, 12 Feb 2015 16:15:06 +0000 mediagirl 2066995@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Everything she can! Well...maybe except for rugby...I know what goes on in rugby....</p> <p>I think we're going to start gymnastics next Fall after swimming season is over! :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-sports-do-you-want-your-kids-to-try#post-2066993 Thu, 12 Feb 2015 16:14:46 +0000 Mrs. Shuja 2066993@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Swimming as I find it to be more of a life skill than anything, softball/baseball, and DH wants them to do jujitsu. I'll be happy as long as they are active in something. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-sports-do-you-want-your-kids-to-try#post-2066991 Thu, 12 Feb 2015 16:14:30 +0000 LuLu Mom 2066991@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Gymnastics is my main one and DH really is all about softball and bought her a tee and bat for Christmas. Otherwise i'll let her try everything...I hate basketball though, I hope she skips that one ;) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-sports-do-you-want-your-kids-to-try#post-2066990 Thu, 12 Feb 2015 16:14:11 +0000 travelgirl1 2066990@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I think I'd love them to try a bit of everything, DH would say tennis. The one I don't want them to try is rugby, I really don't want them playing that. DH comes from quite a rugby family though so I will have my work cut out :bummed: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-sports-do-you-want-your-kids-to-try#post-2066972 Thu, 12 Feb 2015 16:05:38 +0000 mrs. tictactoe 2066972@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Soccer, baseball, golf, dance (not really a sport, but I danced as a kid and loved it). </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-sports-do-you-want-your-kids-to-try#post-2066970 Thu, 12 Feb 2015 16:05:24 +0000 lilyann 2066970@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>All LO1 talks about is sports, so probably a little of everything. Starting with soccer next month :grin: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-sports-do-you-want-your-kids-to-try#post-2066968 Thu, 12 Feb 2015 16:04:22 +0000 BabyBoecksMom 2066968@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We want them to try a little of everything, but definitely gymnastics, soccer and volleyball. </p>
