Personal opinion: sentence diagramming is counterproductive and worse than a waste of time. If you want your kids to learn another language, then putting them in a class/program designed to teach them that language is the best use of time. If you want them to be prepared for math then play logic games with them. Sentence diagramming takes something intuitive, then makes it complicated and un-fun without any benefit for people learning their first language. Mindless sentence diagramming worksheets are like a quintessential example of the kind of thing that disengages kids from school and distracts them from interesting things they could be learning.
