Sports on TV

Do you count sports towards kids TV time? I'm leaning towards no. My husband loves sports so watching them with the my daughter, and eventually my sons, is bonding time. My daughter and my husband curl up on the couch together and watch all sports. My twins are only 4 months, but my husband is looking forward to watching sports with them when they are older. I'm curious if I'm trying to justify the TV watching, or if it isn't a big deal. She doesn't watch much other TV on sports days, but without sports, she is usually allowed 2 hours...

Baseball for a Child

Ladies, we just signed my son up for baseball and he just turned 5 in December,and is in Pre K, so I believe most of the boys on the team are older than him.

I know he would really love it and it would give him some more socialization with kids his age (what he needs). So I told my husband and in-laws last night what I was going to do. They went on and on about how they didn't want him in gymnastics. ...

Swimming Lessons--should I Do Them Myself?

I was a swim instructor for 5 years and (obviously) want my two kids (5-1/2 and 8) to learn how to swim. However, I've heard that you can't teach your own kids to swim and just want to put them into swimming lessons. My husband thinks that I'm being lazy and "not wanting" to teach my own kids, but I don't want one more thing to discipline/push them on. What do you think?
