I agree that It is good to have classes & activities at different hours of the day. My husband and I both work full time and I love to be able to do evening activities with my kids. While the babysitter takes my children to daytime activities, so it isn't a problem for my children to attend. I really like being able to be a part of the activities too.

I think the hours people want vary from family to family. Mornings
don't work for us, but afternoons and evenings are good. I actually
often prefer things in the evening. I think having activities at a
variety of times gives the most chance of everyone being able to do
something at a time that works for them.
