Baby Swimming (3 to 18 months of age)

"Parents can promote the development of their baby's sense of balance by regularly swimming with their offspring as early as shortly after birth. Water gymnastics, the so-called baby swimming, is supposed to improve the sense of balance as well as the co-ordination abilities in the long run, an Icelandic-British research team reports. The scientists compared children who had enjoyed different levels of activity in the water in their baby years ... ", the magazine der Spiegel Online reports.

Regular baby swimming gives the children a physical and mental development advantage over their peers. Through baby swimming, the children get familiar with the element water in a playful manner. In the water, the baby can independently perform movements that wouldn't be possible for it on land. Swimming speeds up the development of motor skills, invigorates the muscles and respiratory system, stimulates circulation and trains the sense of balance.

The children become more self-confident and loose their fear of new and unfamiliar situations. When practising swimming together with their parents, the child is in the centre of its parents' attention. At the same time, the family activities promote their relationship to one another and teach the parents how to safely handle their children in the water.
