I have a 3 year old son who has a lot of energy, we want to get him into some kind of organized activity but not to sure if there is anything he can do at his age.
There are so many activities that a 3 year old can do, such as toddler soccer, gymnastic, swimming, etc. Read the article for other moms' suggestions.
Soccer, soccer, soccer- At that age they just get to run and try to stay somewhat on the field. If he is high energy, this is the sport for him!
Do they have a Gymboree or a YMCA near you? They have a club called itty bitty sports club at our YMCA and it is good for 3 year olds.
My children aren't that age yet but if you live in Lubbock I think Tega has tumbling for kids that age. You also might want to check out some of the martial arts classes, they may start that young.
Hi! There are tons of different things you can do with your 3 year old...The Little Gym, Love to Swim School, Gymboree, Soccertots...Just google them on the internet or get one of those Our Kids Magazines...Hope this helps! jen
Have you tried Gymboree. I had my daughter in that for a long time. Now I have her in Top Notch Learning in dripping Springs. Its 1 hr preschool 2 times a week. Then I also have her in Gymnastics and Horse Back riding and she will be 3 in Aug. Look at Gymboree or My Gym... Both my daughter LOVED..

they can do alot i'm a early childhood larger motor skills teacher if he has the energy get him into something he will enjoy it so much
I would check out your local YMCA. A lot of the Y's have sports that start at 3. Good luck!!! :)
The corpus christi athletic club has tae kwon do classes that start that young. they are on tues/thurs @ 5:30 (i think, make sure they havent changed the time). the instructor is soooo good with little kids. at that age there are no compitions they have to go to etc. my daughter (11) got her black belt a year ago from taking classes there. You can take him up there to try a class and see if he/you like it. I can't say enough about the respect they learn from martial arts.
My 3 year old is in Tae Kwon Do. It allows him to burn his energy (he is VERY energetic), and it teaches him to focus that energy into something. 3 days a week he gets to go do stuff with other little ones.
Soccer Tots is your answer. They are family friendly and they take children 3 and up. This will allow him to have a positive environment to burn off his energy but it will show him teamworking skills as well.
Good luck
Group:Soccer, T-ball, basketball- CYO
Individual- Karate, Gymastics, swimming
I'm a black belt at American Karate School. I am not active right now b/c of the children but I love it there. The instructor/owner is a woman with lots of patient.
I see you are from Corpus so that doesn't help but you can check out some in your area.
We found a gymnastics place that has an open gym day that they do structured activities and they also offer classes for 3 yr. olds. After seeing my son really take an interest in it we are going to put him in a gymnastics class there now because we feel that is a great first sport because at this age group sports are not conducive to their developmental selfish mindset all 3 yr olds have. We feel that gymnastics would be great for his gross motor skills, flexibility, and listening skills. He loves swinging on the rings, jumping on the trampoline, running around, etc. Good luck!
Soccer just ended for the little guys but Wee Ball (Tee Ball) is starting soon go to the YMCA to sign him up. If you have any more questions let me know. I have a 3 year old and a 2 month old son myself.
Gymnastics would be great to start at this age. I have a 2 year old and am thinking of enrolling her in a class. She loves to jump and climb.
