Drive around on Saturdays, near sports fields, and ask a coach.

Many boys and girls clubs have activities for children that age. I don't think it is too young as long as your boys show interest. I have a nephew who started tee ball at age 3 and loved it. Little boys have lots of energy so I am sure that tee ball and soccer would be fine.

Yeah, I think they are a little bit young. Usually you start kids in tee ball around 5 or 6. You might be able to get your 4y/o involved in something, but your 3y/o is way too young.

I think 5 or 6 is a good age to get them into organized baseball and sports in general. Play close attention to the league you choose to participate in. At this age, you want the focus to be nstructional, not competitive.
Right now, keep playing catch with your kids and keep letting them kick and bat balls.

I think its agreat idea that you want to put your kids in sports. The parks in the city you live in might have sign-ups for tee ball and soccer try that. It's great to see little ones play they look so cute out there.

I think the youngest age is 5 years old. But that doesnt mean that you cant go outside and play ball and teach them the game before they turn five. Have fun they are great at that age.

I dont think they are. As long as it involves kids their age, I think it's a great idea! I am an advocate on kids being active. It decreases their chances with obesity, and most of them find joy in it...even if they ARE 3 or 4! I am not sure of where you can start them at, but if they are in school, ask their teachers, or other parents in your area.

it all depends on you-- a lot of controversy regarding this -my own personal feeling is that it is fine just as long as you are trying to give them something fun too participate in and not for any expectations you might have about their success and performance.
if they grow tired of it or they just don't have the attention span for it then let it go for a while and then try again when they are older and let them choose what sport or activity they would like too try and just be mom and be there when they lose and when they win.

i think the younger they get started the better. the only thing is dont put them in a age gruop that is to wide spred. i think you can find tee ball and soccer teams at your local parks and recreation. good luck!
