7-12 years

Involvement in social, exercise and recreational activities develops a range of skills

Children participate more in life if they enjoy what they are doing. The activities your child does at this stage of their life should be about fun, function, family, friends, fitness and future. As your child develops, it’s not only the family that should be involved in your child’s dreams for the future, but a widening social sphere. Developing new friendships and involvement in social, exercise and recreational activities develops a range of skills.
