Parents don’t have to drive all over town to find enrichment classes that lead to academic readiness for young children

(NewsUSA) - We’ve all heard of the stereotype of the overscheduled child who has a class for everything; music, robotics, sports, a foreign language. And behind that child is a frazzled parent spending hours in their car ferrying the child from lesson to lesson.

While unstructured play is essential for young children, specialty classes do have their place. When offered in a low-pressure, age-appropriate way, these experiences help children explore new ideas, discover emerging interests, and build confidence, without the stress of making the team or having a flawless recital or winning the competition.
