The Beauty of Childhood #2: Learning to Swim
Hi, Steemian worldwide!
The content of my blog this time still with the theme "The Beauty of Childhood". Childhood is the period for the formation of character. However, in addition to the formation of character, childhood is also a period for physical development. Children should receive spiritual and physical health. Both have to be impartial.
One of the activities that can form the physical development of children are swimming. Swimming is not only a fun sport, but also healthy. According to an article from kids alive: Learning to swim has many benefits for our children. It’s great for their health and well being, it enhances their self esteem and importantly teaches them a respect for water. While children are capable of being independently mobile in the water from a very young age, they must never be left unsupervised. No child is drown proof.
Below are some photos of the activities of children who are learning to swim. These pictures are photos of my old collection. In the photo seen my son and my nephew. They enjoy their vacation to learn to swim. We chose the pool Tirta Raya, Banda Aceh.
I recommend for any parent to support their children to learn to swim. According to swimming.org there are several reasons why learning to swim is important for children.
- Swimming keeps your child’s heart and lungs healthy, improves strength and flexibility, increases stamina and even improves balance and posture.
- Swimming provides challenges and rewards accomplishments, which helps children to become self-confident and believe in their abilities.
- Your child will have plenty of opportunities to make friends and grow in confidence.
Learning to swim in childhood will be a wonderful memory for them.
