my 3 yr old son is super active. for me studies are important but extra cirricular activities is more important. in future if he doesnt score that well in exam ...its ok. but if hes good in dports or other activities. i will appreciate that as well. no pressurising kids for marks

extracurricular activities especially physical activity is a must atleast for one to one and half hour. Insread of taking thwm to malls they should be taken to places which will teach them the importance of nature some nearby garden some small hilly area etc..

no it's the extra activity through which every child learns something new

it is very good for kids to choose to do something they like like drawing , playing sports, learning music or dance, cooking and many more hobbies as it helps to develop their skills like teamwork, creativity , focus, acceptance of failure and most importantly develop a grit which is needed in current times to lead a good life.
