Activities for a 4 year old

By hari_krishnanv

Hi

 We have a 4 year old son who HAS to be enrolled in some kind of sporting activity ASAP. Am sure parents with 4 year olds know why I used caps! Ideally we need him to be engaged from about 5 to 7 pm every day or atleast 4 times a week. Any sugestions?

We are new to Doha so, it will be great if suggestions can come with some telephone numbers or locations for these activities.

Not sure if this has been posted before although I did see specific posts on certain activities. We have tried a combination of parks, the corniche and malls but the little one has already got bored and irritated and talks of going back alone to India!

have u consider tae kwon do?  My son been doing that for over 2 yrs now. He will be 7 this coming October. And he started his class just after his 4th birthday.

 

He goes to Master shin (Korea Tae Kwon Do Centre)  in Salwa Road, just opposite Jarir Book store.
