Activities

I know I have a lot to catch everyone up on but for now I will just post what I am thinking about

I wasn't in many activities growing up and I wish I had been. So now what do I do for my kids? 

We have tried dance, gymnastics, swimming, ice skating, soccer, t-ball and girl scouts. Some many times others just once.

Mallory has pretty much dropped out of everything. I am not sure if she will regret it in the future but I want her to be having fun. I don't want to force her to do something she isn't enjoying. Our next adventure is piano lessons.

Dance is one of the activities that I want them to like but I don't think they were ever very interested. Mykaela does like to dance and perform but to her own routine. I saw Mykaela's teacher talk to her this evening and I know it was about being a better listener. When I brought it up she just made a sad face. She said she doesn't know how to do some of the moves. I said I could practice with her she said no. She doesn't want to dance anymore. I am trying to come up with ways to make it fun, maybe bring her to a ballet or a dance competition?? My predicament is that I just paid the money for the recital outfit last month (not cheap) and because of that I really want her to finish out the season. Which is 5 more months. But I struggle because I want her to understand that this is something that has already been paid for and she needs to follow through on her commitment but I also want her to be having fun and enjoy it. So I am not sure what to do...should I let her drop out or should I have her complete the season. This is her third year in dance.
