Pay to play

Recently,I have spoken to a few parents,who send their toddlers to attend classes.. believed to make them smarter then their counterparts.Well,is not that I have anything against it,but the fees that they have to pay is shocking...and activities carried out in these classes are even more alarming.I have attended one with my son recently,like any parent,I also longed for my son to be the creme de la creme, so, convinced by my mum,both of us went excitedly,(a parent are require to participate with a child) the class starts with shaking and rocking my son from left to right and right to left then followed by both of us crawling side by side,all this seems too familiar...when we were kids,our parents always play this kind of game with us unconsciously,not knowing that it will some how benefit us in our future development,but look at today's parents,we pay few hundreds or even thousands,just to do this simple task with our children under supervision.
Hey parents...talking about creativity???Lets get back to basics!
