  1. How about play with dolls?  My sisters loved it. A balanced activity schedule requires a little downtime.


  2. Truthfully you shouldn't start anything else right now. She's still pretty young and quite scheduled. Wait a few years and watch to see how her interests develop and decide from there if adding or changing an activity would be beneficial. If she has too many different things going at any age she won't have the opportunity to really excel in any one area. Keep in mind having "the best possible education" does not mean taking the most lessons.

  3. wow...

    step back and let her play!  you're going the right way to have a wild child out of control on your hands when she's a teenager.

    would YOU like someone to pick all of your interests for you?  she probably enjoys most things now because she wants to please you and make you happy.  but in a few years...yikes.  

    if you really want the best for her, let her lead you and be there to support her in what she choses to do.

  4. OMG let the child be just that, a child. If she loves doing what he is doing- great. But, would she really tell you if she weren't happy, in fear that she may upset or disappoint you?? Please so her a favor and do not load anything else unto her. Let her be 4 not 14. She needs to be outside running around with friends, swimming, laughing, enjoying her youth. I am 100% for routine and getting your child involved in activities, but they also need to be children.

  5. Ok, so tell me.... when does she have time to play and be a normal  4 year old?  You say you want a good education for her but you didn't say anything about preschool.  Kids need down time and you don't seem to be giving her that. But are you really doing it for her or so you can tell other people she is involved in these activities?

  6. What happened to being a 4 year old child?  You are over extending your daughter and by the time she reaches 6 or 7 she is going to be burnt out.  She doesn't NEED violin, French, Horse back riding or Piano to be 4 years old.  The ballet isn't bad because it teaches co ordination.  Stop worrying about your child's intelect and allow her to be a CHILD, allow her to develop her imagination because it has been proven those who were allowed to behave as children and use their imaginations as children are by far the more intelligent adults.  You are attempting to turn a 4 year old child into an adult and it's going to backfire someday.

  7. I don't think I would put her in anything else. Actually I think she's doing too much as it is... She's only 4, let her be a kid. She needs free time to use her imagination and learn how to entertain herself. At that age they really learn best through simple play. =]

  8. I know you probably mean well but let your child be a kid. This sounds like too much to me.

  9. does she want to do anything else? ask her what other activities she would like to do. if she says no, then leave her at the ones she is doing currently. if she wants to quit one, then let her quit. it's not a good idea to stress out a four yr old
