Once your child enters preschool, you can start considering enrolling them in a new sport. If your child loves being outside, is extremely active, or enjoys group activities, joining a small team could be perfect. Here are some steps to take when you decide to get your preschooler involved in a sport.<\/span><\/p>\n

Talk to them<\/span><\/h4>\n

Getting feedback from your child is an imperative first step in this process. Watch a baseball game on TV and ask them if they think playing would be fun. Take them to a neighborhood game and see how they respond\u2014or go to the park and play with them and some of their friends and their families. If they respond positively to these activities and questions, it\u2019s a good sign that they\u2019re emotionally ready to take on a new activity. Sometimes children\u2019s immediate response is negative toward new things, but this does not necessarily mean that they shouldn\u2019t play a sport. Ask them about their concerns and go from there. Everyone gets beginner\u2019s nerves, but a little encouragement can be the best medicine.<\/span><\/p>\n

Start small<\/span><\/h4>\n

Depending on the child, you may want to take baby steps with their new sport. Play in the backyard a few days a week to warm your preschooler up to whatever activity they\u2019re interested in. Then, you can search around and see if any of their classmates or friends are already on a team. The more familiarity, the easier it will be for your child to transition. Maybe a familiar parent coaches the team, or one of your child\u2019s favorite teachers has a team.<\/span><\/p>\n

Always be sure to have fun. With sports come rules, competition, and the concept of winning and losing. This is a great chance to learn morals like sticking to it, being a good winner and loser, doing your best, and being a team player. This will make your child a better athlete and person in the long run.<\/span><\/p>\n
