I remember my granddad’s words. An apple a day keeps the doctor away. I used to laugh at him, but there was certainly good deal of truth in these words, he was fit as a fiddle. Probably one day I will be able to tell my grandchildren: A swimming lap a day, keeps the doctor away! Why is swimming good for your kids? There are many benefits that swimming has on your body: the well-rounded impact on your health, quality of life, swimming as a therapy, reducing the risk of certain

Sećam se dedinih reči: Deco pojedite jabuku dnevno inema brige za zdravlje. Smejao sam se tim rečima, ali ima istine u tome, bio je zdrav ko dren… Verovatno ću jednog dana i ja moći svojim unucima da kažem: Deco plivajte redovno i nema brige za zdravlje! Zašto je plivanje dobro za decu? Plivanje kod dece ima širok spektar benefita na organizam: od opšteg unapređenje zdravlja, kvaliteta života, plivanja kao vida terapije, smanjenja rizika od nastanka pojedinih bolesti (srca, p

How many things do children get served on a “silver plate” and how many do they need to really fight for? Are they as persistent as the marathon runner or they give up when they encounter their first obstacle? If they are to be exposed to an environment that is a little bit different to their own, would they be able to handle it? When we are the best in what we do, whether it’s tug of war, baking cakes, laying bricks, designing shoes, writing, creating ads, or swimming, at a

Koliko deca danas dobijaju sve na «tacni», a koliko se za nešto baš sami izbore? Da li su uporna kao maratonci ili na prvu prepreku odustaju?
