Why so keen to get DCs into extra curricular activities?

This is a post for exactly what the title says.

I'd like to see what other MNers' reasons are/were for introducing their DCs into various activities. Just curious.

Thanks

My dc's do, and have done, lots of extracurricular activities. All, with the possible exception of swimming, beavers and brownies, have been because they have wanted to do it.

To extend their social circle, improve their social skills, help them develop new interests, keep them active, reduce boredom and give me three hours to myself in an otherwise demanding week
