Not for the kids, for the parents!<BR/><BR/>4 year old soccer is all about getting the kids going toward the right goal and teaching them the hand-foot coordination of kicking the ball. If you keep your expectations reasonable and make sure your child knows that -- regardless of ability -- s/he is your *favorite* player on the soccer field, you will have a great time with it.<BR/><BR/>-MM<BR/><BR/>p.s. In terms of the heat, never underestimate the power of a moist towel with an ice pack or two in the cooler. And there's no better soccer snack than fresh orange slices. YUM! :)Midwest Momhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10095161837187839812noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-584545306338199398.post-26579243990896893382008-08-19T22:27:00.000-07:002008-08-19T22:27:00.000-07:00I've been thinking of putting my daughter in socce...I've been thinking of putting my daughter in soccer, but was waiting until it cooled down a bit- its too dang hot to be running around outside in Texas in the summer. She's four and half, so I don't know how much of the game she will fully understand, but running around and kicking a ball? Fun!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
