My son is 3. While I try to teach him as much as I can keep his focus for academically, one thing that surprised me was how much he has taken to practicing soccer lately. Over the last couple months, from refusing to kick a ball that was passed to him, to wanting to play pass from the moment he wakes up, he has made tremendous progress kicking the ball, dribbling, and aiming. I have noticed his balance and coordination improve substantially, not to mention the power behind his kick. It has been a blast and we both have a great time taking a ball to the park and working on his skills. He has now started mimicking some moves that I do - crossovers, maradonas, back-heeling the ball. Not well, mind you, but nothing funnier than watching a 3yo trying to do a crossover with a size 5 ball that goes up to his knees.
