Basketball

I played basketball growing up and now my son has been playing. Here are a few of my favorite things about basketball:

1. fun game

2. need very little equipment

3. good for the body

4. good for the mind

5. keeps kids busy and out of trouble

6. gives kids something to watch on TV other than the usual junk that is shown

7. gives kids something to talk about

8. gives kids a good bond with adults (dads and moms alike)

9. teaches kids how to make seeds and brackets (I am sure this is important for some reason!)

10. watching can be a source of motivation for kids to improve their game
