THE BENEFITS OF EXTRACURRICULAR ACTIVITIES FOR KIDS
Mother, Baby & Child|November 2023
Extracurricular activities are fantastic at aiding a child's development in a range of different ways. Let's take a closer look at what extracurriculars can do for your little one.
THE BENEFITS OF EXTRACURRICULAR ACTIVITIES FOR KIDS

Getting involved in extracurricular activities generates a whole host of benefits for children. While school can be demanding and taking on anything extra may seem daunting, extracurriculars can keep your child active and learning, while taking their mind off their classes.

DEVELOP SOCIAL SKILLS

Perhaps the main reason most parents sign their children up to a new extracurricular activity is for them to make new friends. At the very least, all of the children present will share a common interest in the chosen activity, and it’s likely that they’ll have more in common than this alone. Meeting other kids away from the pressures of the school environment is a great way for little ones to socialise.

Especially for those who may struggle socially in school, extracurricular activities offer the chance of a fresh start. It’s an opportunity for them to try to make some friends, all while working on a hobby.

LEARN SOMETHING NEW

Though obvious, the fact that extracurriculars present a way for your child to learn something new should not be underestimated. School can feel allconsuming for little ones, going from class to class and stressing about homework. Taking on something completely different in a non-school environment can reignite their true love for learning. While you may have certain sports or activities in mind that you would like your child to try, it’s important to get some input from them. They’re the ones that have to show up every week, after all!
