Definitely, there is such a thing as TOO MANY, it puts too much pressure on both kids and parents. We usually have one or two activities for each. Currently, this is what we do:
Our son (10 yrs old): is playing baseball (in the fall he played soccer, and during the first year he attended art classes)
Our daughter (5 yrs old): swim lessons 2x a week and ballet once a week (she did not attend any activities during the first year).
We believe that kids need unstructured time to get creative, to simply play at home or outside with neighbors' friends.
