Growing up, my parents always called me a fish or a mermaid because I absolutely loved swimming and being in the water. Whether I was at the beach or in a pool, I’d stay in swimming and playing for hours until I was a prune.
Although I spent a great deal of time in the water as a kid, I never actually took swim lessons, but it’s something I intend on doing with my daughter. I firmly believe it’s important to instill healthy exercise habits young, and to get kids comfortable in the water. One of the reasons why I love swimming as an adult is because it’s not only just as fun as it was when I was a kid, but it’s a low impact sport.
SwimToday.Org posted a great video about swimming, and it being a great sport for kids. Check it out, feel free to share it and tell us why swimming is the #FunnestSport for you!
