From hockey and dance to chess club, families can be pulled in many extracurricular directions.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s easy for parents to be overwhelmed by the choices of activities for their child \u2014 or also, how accessible these are, for reasons\u00a0like financial barriers<\/a>\u00a0or transportation challenges.<\/p>\n

In the midst of this, parents receive advice to ensure their\u00a0kids move their bodies<\/a>\u00a0and\u00a0challenge their brains<\/a>,\u00a0be creative<\/a>, but also to carve out space for\u00a0family and downtime<\/a>.<\/p>\n

A\u00a0recent report<\/a>\u00a0found that on average, Canadian parents pay $1,160 a year on their children\u2019s extracurricular activities. Fortunately, there are resources or neighbourhood hubs that help identify available activities for kids \u2014\u00a0for instance, this resource allows<\/a>\u00a0you to search by Canadian location, activity type and price (including some free activities).<\/p>\n

To help families navigate extracurricular activities, we offer parents suggestions to help make informed decisions about finding a balance that aims to align with their family values and meet the individual needs of their children.<\/p>\n

Benefits of kids having a busy schedule<\/strong><\/h3>\n

The good side of extracurriculars is that research shows kids involved in activities are more likely to have\u00a0better friendships and fewer mental health problems<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Participating in multiple activities can also provide structure and a routine for children, which helps them\u00a0feel in control of their environment<\/a>\u00a0and predict what is coming next.<\/p>\n

Having a lot of scheduled activities can also help your child learn valued time-management skills, like how to complete their homework because they have soccer practice later that evening.<\/p>\n

Friendships, belonging<\/strong><\/h3>\n

Extracurricular activities are also a great opportunity for children to develop and nurture their own interests while forming meaningful friendships. Participating in extracurricular activities can help kids find a sense of belonging. Some activities may be specifically relevant to your\u00a0child\u2019s culture, community<\/a>\u00a0or your own family concerns.<\/p>\n

Extracurricular opportunities also allow children to explore new skills and to discover new strengths. Potentially, they learn routes to feeling accomplished that don\u2019t depend on academic performance. When they participate and succeed at an activity they enjoy,\u00a0this can help boost their self-confidence<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Finally, participating in extracurricular activities can keep kids\u00a0away from screens<\/a>. A lot of research has shown the dangers of\u00a0too much screen time<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Importance of free play, downtime<\/strong><\/h3>\n

The bad side of overscheduling kids is that it can have\u00a0adverse effects<\/a>\u00a0for some children and families. When kids are overscheduled, they often don\u2019t have time for other critically important parts of life.<\/p>\n

Overscheduling kids may get in the way of unstructured playtime, which research has shown is extremely valuable for children\u2019s development. Unstructured free play has been shown to\u00a0bolster children\u2019s creativity, increase their problem solving skills and allow children to demonstrate their own individuality<\/a><\/p>\n

Additionally it is\u00a0important for children to have downtime<\/a>\u00a0as it gives children a chance to pause, reflect and relax.<\/p>\n

Overscheduling kids may also quickly\u00a0overwhelm children<\/a>\u00a0as they are balancing multiple activities on top of their schoolwork \u2014 and may leave\u00a0kids prone to stress<\/a>, physical complaints and self-reported anxiety and depression.<\/p>\n

Importance of family time<\/strong><\/h3>\n

When kids are overbooked there may be less quality family time. Something as simple as eating a family meal together may become increasingly difficult for families with scheduling conflicts. Connecting as a family is important.\u00a0Research<\/a>\u00a0has shown that when a family eats meals together, the children do better academically, and are less likely to suffer from mental health problems.<\/p>\n

How can parents and caregivers find a balance between structured and unstructured time?<\/p>\n

Tips for parents and caregivers<\/h3>\n

Listen to your child:<\/strong>\u00a0Encourage their interests and preferences. Monitor your child\u2019s level of engagement. For example, are they excited to share what they learned or motivated to practise on their own? Are they withdrawn, moody or resistant to communicating about their activities? Consider whether your child enjoys the activity they are doing or how it suits their abilities.<\/p>\n

Take some time to discuss which activities are most important and why. Variables might include: Which activities align with your family\u2019s values? Which activities align most with your child\u2019s interests or help nurture belonging or competence? Which activities suit your schedule? Use these discussions to establish priorities.<\/p>\n

Quality over quantity:<\/strong>\u00a0Focus on the quality of experiences. Think about whether your child is getting something out of the experience like learning a valuable skill, building important relationships or habits or even simply enjoying themselves. Think about whether the activity is valuable enough that it\u2019s worth the time it might take away from other important things like family time.<\/p>\n

Family time:<\/strong>\u00a0Dedicate time for family interactions. You can do something as simple as prioritizing eating meals together \u2014 it doesn\u2019t have to be only dinner, maybe family breakfast or family lunch depending on that day\u2019s schedule.<\/p>\n

Stay flexible:<\/strong>\u00a0Adjust schedules as interests evolve. It\u2019s OK for kids to change their interests! If they find the activity they used to love is just not that interesting to them anymore it\u2019s OK to shake things up. Overcommitting your child to an activity that they are no longer interested in increases the\u00a0likelihood of burnout<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Stress & time management:<\/strong>\u00a0Teach important life skills. Help your kids understand how to manage their schedules. This could include having a planner or agenda so they can lay out all their activities on top of any school commitments. Teach them how to balance their commitments so they have enough time to dedicate to schoolwork and extracurricular activities.<\/p>\n

You can create a\u00a0family schedule<\/a>\u00a0that\u2019s visible to everyone to help keep track of family plans.<\/p>\n
