Hi happyreader
No real advice, just commiseration! DS6 is also not coordinated and apparently has some tone issues but basically he's like your DD he prefers what interests him and what he is good at. Last fall we did nothing after school, but soccer and swim on the weekends. We have made swim mandatory for safety and for the fun things we want to eventually do with him, like snorkeling. Soccer you could actually see him lose interest while running as he thought of something - funny, yet not!
So we are doing camp and he is being exposed to everything and so far - archery caught his fancy, I dont think it's that active but it might lead to a willingness to try other things? Also how about rock or wall climbing?
Hilarious part - this past weekend, DS refused to leave the house, we had a science weekend instead! But with 5 out of 7 I think we are still physically ahead of the game!
