We can't afford to send our dcs to private school, and we are close to a good primary school, DD has just started reception there.
DD loves school and is relatively bright and has managed everything they have done with ease (according to her teacher) I don't want her to do more school work, but feel she needs more something
She has expressed a wish to start recorder club, but they can't start until year one, there are no school clubs available to reception at all.
My DH was educated privately, and has said he remembers being very busy at 5 with extra clubs (music, sports etc) as well as fairly packed days in school.
Is there anything I can do with her myself that would have the same effect? We already read together, go to the park, swimming, play games etc.
