    In addition to the opportunity to get out of the house and socialize, homeschool sports and arts activities can offer long-term benefits by developing characteristics like leadership, self-confidence, perserverance, and self-esteem. Many organizations and businesses have activities specifically for homeschoolers, while others invite homeschoolers to participate in their regular programs.

    Not sure how to choose activities for your children? Read how Rebecca narrows down the choice of extra-curricular activities.
