DH would love for our sons to play baseball and all of our kids will take swim classes/lessons. I wouldn’t mind if they wanted to swim or play water polo competitively (I did both as did MIL and all of DH’s brothers…one of them still is). </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-sportsextracurricular-activities-for-your-lo#post-247025 Fri, 03 Aug 2012 11:09:39 +0000 MamaMoose 247025@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>All of our kids will swim. Hubs will want our sons to at least try football (he's a former NFL player). I will want all of our daughters to be in ballet. All of our kids will have to do a musical instrument for at least two years as well. If they don't like it after that, they don't have to continue... but they need to give it a good shot! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-sportsextracurricular-activities-for-your-lo#post-247023 Fri, 03 Aug 2012 11:09:00 +0000 heffalump 247023@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My mom let us pick, and I'll do the same with my LO. As long as she does pick. She's not going to do nothing. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-sportsextracurricular-activities-for-your-lo#post-247021 Fri, 03 Aug 2012 11:07:27 +0000 LuLu Mom 247021@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I plan on our LO taking swimming lessons from a young age, being in the water and comfortable in it is important to me. </p> <p>I also plan on enrolling LO in mommy and me gymnastics from a young age, hoping she will love and it and want to stick with it. And possible dance/cheer if she wants when older! </p> <p>We also said we will keep an open mind to anything she watns to try, however we will not allow her to quit without completing the season/ect. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-sportsextracurricular-activities-for-your-lo#post-246983 Fri, 03 Aug 2012 10:44:23 +0000 Mrs. Bee 246983@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>swimming, soccer, martial arts (karate or taekwondo), and music. maybe little league when they're a little bit older. i love baseball! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-sportsextracurricular-activities-for-your-lo#post-246980 Fri, 03 Aug 2012 10:42:58 +0000 ladyfingers 246980@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Music and some kind of sports. I like karate, especially when they're young. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-sportsextracurricular-activities-for-your-lo#post-246581 Fri, 03 Aug 2012 03:36:17 +0000 Sweet T 246581@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We want DS to play soccer. We plan on putting any future daughters in dance. Of course, they'll have a say in what sports/extracurriculars they do. I just want them to do something and to be active. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-sportsextracurricular-activities-for-your-lo#post-246500 Thu, 02 Aug 2012 22:51:25 +0000 Mrs. Superhero 246500@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Music and swimming will be non-negotiable. I'll put them in some other activities and see what they like! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-sportsextracurricular-activities-for-your-lo#post-246490 Thu, 02 Aug 2012 22:45:51 +0000 Minnie_Girl 246490@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>A music extracurricular, a sport, a scouts group, and whatever they're interested in! Though not necessarily all at the same time, haha. (I don't count swimming because that's a life skill right up there with learning to tie your shoelaces) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-sportsextracurricular-activities-for-your-lo#post-246399 Thu, 02 Aug 2012 21:42:37 +0000 Tidybee 246399@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Definitely swimming...and then we'll see where his or<br /> Her passion and talents lay. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-sportsextracurricular-activities-for-your-lo#post-246397 Thu, 02 Aug 2012 21:41:42 +0000 brownie 246397@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Swimming - because I think everyone needs to know how to swim (not necessarily that they all need lessons).</p> <p>Gymnastics - I loved it and think it is a great foundational activity and he can do it now (at 15 months)</p> <p>Dance - Because he loves to dance. Only as long as he wants to.</p> <p>Crossfit - Again a great sports foundation.</p> <p>Our requirements are that he do something physical and something musical until he graduates from High School. He can try different things but he has to do something. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-sportsextracurricular-activities-for-your-lo#post-246389 Thu, 02 Aug 2012 21:39:03 +0000 Mrs. Sunglasses 246389@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Soccer for sure! As much as I would like hockey, that sport is EXPENSIVE! (especially goalies) Dancing too. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-sportsextracurricular-activities-for-your-lo#post-246387 Thu, 02 Aug 2012 21:38:46 +0000 Mrs. Pickle 246387@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We'd like for them to play soccer. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-sportsextracurricular-activities-for-your-lo#post-246381 Thu, 02 Aug 2012 21:36:37 +0000 mrsjyw 246381@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>DH and I plan on throwing our LOs into everything and then letting them pick a couple that they want to stick with... </p>
