Soccer for sure! As much as I would like hockey, that sport is EXPENSIVE! (especially goalies) Dancing too.

Swimming - because I think everyone needs to know how to swim (not necessarily that they all need lessons).
Gymnastics - I loved it and think it is a great foundational activity and he can do it now (at 15 months)
Dance - Because he loves to dance. Only as long as he wants to.
Crossfit - Again a great sports foundation.
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.

Her passion and talents lay.

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)

Music and swimming will be non-negotiable. I'll put them in some other activities and see what they like!

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.

Music and some kind of sports. I like karate, especially when they're young.

I plan on our LO taking swimming lessons from a young age, being in the water and comfortable in it is important to me.
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!
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.

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.

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!

Definitely music (their choice but they’ll need to stick with it). 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).
