Kids hobbies/sports?

[~Tara~]

What hobbies and/or sports are your kids involved in?

My 9 year old is showing interest in BMX racing. We already have a bike, now to get him on the track.
Then he and the 7 yr old are both learning to play the guitar.

That's the extent of our extra-curricular activities. What do you all do?

My 8 year old son takes piano lessons and has since he was 5. He lives for music! He also plays baseball. My 5 year old dd loves tap dancing and gymnastics. She also wants to cheerlead but has to be 6 here to do that.

Thanks for starting this thread--it's going to be interesting to find out what everyone's kids like to do.

My daughter plays the flute, rarely, but she plays well. Her first love is dance, she was never into ballet or tap, but give her some latin music and she will salsa all over the room! She has been a cheerleader since kindergarten, and now the dance team in h.s. for two years.
My son plays the tuba and takes fencing lessons.
They are why I tear up the roads!!

My son plays baseball and is on the swim team. He's not interested in much else so that keep us busy during spring and summer!

Our children are invovled in Cub Scouts and AWANAS. They really aren't into sports and are too young to really get into musical instruments yet. Although my 7 going on 8 year old has indicated he would like to play baseball in the spring - but we will see what happened.

Brett takes guitar from a Christian Musician. He has played baseball but he loves Soccer.

Soccer! Fall soccer, winter soccer, practice, soccer camp! We even have some winter games outdoors. Brrrrr!!!!

I would cry if Brett played outside in the Winter! Brett has a history of asthma and Jimmy would have a fit when it would drizzle a little during baseball.

Our boys did soccer this past autumn/winter, they do Boy's Brigade all year round, and swimming in the summer. Our eldest wants to learn guitar now that soccer is finished.
