Re: sports

Both did swimming at 2/3
Robbie did Tball at 5
Noah started Lacrosse at 6

They play other sports colloquially - but those are the ones that were 'organized'.

My oldest is in Kindergarten now and has done:

Baseball/t-ball (clinic at age 5 but did lil sluggers and daddy and me before that at 3 and 4)

basketball clinic (K)

soccer (since age 3 - but didn't like it much unti he was in K)

He has taken swim lessons and when he was 2.5-5ish he has done gymnastics on and off.

My little one is only 3.5 and has been doing soccer in the fall and now again in the spring. He has been doing swim since a little before he turned 3 and gymnastics since 2.5yrs.

Tball (5)

He wants to play LAX; and had I need missed registration he'd be doing that now at 5 as well...

I encourage all sports/activities; so he could play anything he likes...
