Too many activities

Hi just wanted some feedback from other parents. I have 6 year old twins and I'm finding the amount of homework they are expected to do overwhelming as they also have extra curricular activities, at present DS does piano and Spanish after school once a week then football and tennis on Saturday DD does the same except not football but gymnastics on Sunday, my husband wants them to have tuition in maths and English for 2 hours on a Friday after school is this too much? They constantly moan about piano
practise but otherwise seem happy with the amount of things they are doing.

Why do they need to have extra tuition?

My dd used to do lots but her temper was coming out a lot. So we cut down to 2 activities a week which made a huge difference.
