School hasn't ended yet I know, but it's better to plan and budget ahead for what our kids could do this summer.  Hence, as one of my blog's most-awaited posts for the year, I'm bringing you a compilation of 2017 Summer Workshops, Lessons and Sports Clinics for Kids in Metro Manila.

Enrolling my kids to summer activities help in developing their talents or let them discover what they really want to do which build their confidence, improve their social skills, and keep them focused on tasks and goals.  I enrolled my eldest in basketball clinics since he was 7 years old, and now he's a varsity player in his school.  He also sings and plays the guitars, which he learned from the classes I also enrolled him in.  Meanwhile, my preschooler is still on the road to discovery of what he really wants to do, he's only six years old.  As early as now, I can see his interest in the following: singing, painting, reading, and karate too.

As parents to growing and exploring children, my husband and I will do what we can support them in their line of interests.  I'm sure we all want what's best for our kids. Preparing for summer activities couldn't be too early (yes, even if it's still mid-February!)  Summer is the best time to enroll them in classes, workshops or sports clinics.

Here are some which you could also choose to enroll your child/ren in.
