I'm the mom of a 4 yr old who wants to get into base ball because some of his friends are going to the little league, the question is that we tried soccer a year ago and the kids were not ready at all, they got more frustrated than had fun, and I don't want that to hapen again, I know it largely depends on your kid, but most people agree that organized sports shouldn't start until 5... I talked to the moms of the other kids on the little league and some say they're just dragging the kids because by the third time they go, the kids don't think is fun waiting for so long to maybe hit the ball once. What do you think?

I would wait until age 5 at least... we had a similar experience, and my son just ended up getting bored at the games.  Give yourself one more year as well because in my experience once you start organized sports it just gets to be more and more of a time committment the older they get!
