Can't the children pick some activities locally? When I was a kid almost all my extracurricular stuff took place within 2 km from home and I walked to it. Of course, I was lucky to live in a place where a very wide variety of such stuff was available within a walking distance.
I also wonder if those children aren't overloaded with activities? Don't they ever want to just play with their friends? Relax? Ride a bike?
