weekday football classes for 4/5 year olds?

Recommended Posts

My 4 and a half yo son is not starting reception till we move to Devon at the end of the year, so I have him every day all day (as well as his sister who is 21 months). I am struggling to keep him happy during the week while all the other kids his age are at school.

I thought football might be an option but can't find any classes during the week.

Also any other suggestion for activities would be very welcome!

Thank you

could you not get involved in one of the forest schools or the home schooling network?


I had a similar situation with my son as I didn't want him to start until he really had to, ie age 5, and it was very difficult to find things to do. We ended up going to loads of museums - Greenwich maritime, horniman etc etc and making our own activities.

We go to this quite regularly and my son (almost 3) really enjoys it. The coach (from Millwall) is great and the games are lots of fun. From the Southwark Let's Go guide...

coffeelover - thank you. What day is it? Sounds perfect!

canela - yes, I am postponing the beginning of institutionalisation as long as possible and also would not want him to settle into a new school onto to move to another one after two months! And it is quite nice to have him to myself (although I feel I am going mad at times!)

    • We had one that projected stars and played lullabies. It was a soft toy bee with a hard plastic back. I know we used it but can’t recall how effective it was.  What was brilliant was the Lulla sleep doll which has a heart beat sound. That was a critical sleep aid for the first couple of years. 
    • Hmmm, millions of animals are killed each year to eat in this country.  10,000 animals (maybe many more) reared to be eaten by exotic pets, dissected by students, experimented on by cosmetic and medical companies.  Why is this any different? Unless you have a vegan lifestyle most of us aren't in a position to judge.  I've not eaten meat for years, try not to buy leather and other animal products as much as possible but don't read every label, and have to live with the fact that for every female chick bred to (unaturally) lay eggs for me to eat, there will be male that is likely top be slaughtered, ditto for the cow/milk machines - again unnatural. I wasn't aware that there was this sort of market, but there must be a demand for it and doubt if it is breaking any sort of law. Happy to be proved wrong on anything and everything.
    • I don't know how spoillable food can be used as evidence in whatever imaginary CSI scenario you are imagining.  And yes, three times. One purchase was me, others were my partner. We don't check in with each other before buying meat. Twice we wrote it off as incidental. But now at three times it seems like a trend.   So the shop will be hearing from me. Though they won't ever see me again that's for sure.  I'd be happy to field any other questions you may have Sue. Your opinion really matters to me.
