Drawing and swimming have a common role in child therapies. A letter “doesn’t blush”, and the water is a cure. A pen and swimming often make a child express himself/herself, with no pressure of the environment. In the first place, it is relaxing. Imagine children at the age of seven drawing something before they jump into the pool, and then swim, and once they finish with swimming, they come back to finish their drawing. I wonder what message their drawings would send. When I work with children, my drawing paper is the pool, and the pen is a stroke they make. In this way we have managed to «make» dozens of cheerful, playful and joyous drawings! Ever since my kids showed their interest in dra
Crtanje i plivanje imaju značajnu ulogu u terapiji kod dece. Kao što papir «trpi» sve, tako i voda leči. Olovka i plivanje često pomažu da se dete izrazi na način koji mu odgovara, bez pritiska okoline u svakom smislu. Na prvom mestu ih opušta. Zamislite da deca, uzrasta od tri do sedam godina, pre svakog skoka u vodu nacrtaju nešto, a zatim plivaju i kada završe sa časom ponovo nešto docrtaju. Pitam se koju bi poruku slali njihovi crteži? U radu sa decom, moj papir za crtanje je bazen, a olovka svaki njihov zaveslaj. Na taj način uspeli smo zajedno da «nacrtamo» pregršt veselih, razigranih i radosnih slika! Od kada su moja deca pokazala interesovanje ka crtanju, papir i bojice nosimo svuda,
Has it ever happened that your children cut themselves on a piece of glass on a beach? How many times has it happened that you found a piece of a can while playing with your child in the sand? Are you okay with your child playing in the sand full of cigarette butts? Do you like it when a chewing gum sticks to your swimming trunks? Do the same rules which apply at home also apply at the beach, that a banana skin or chewing gums are thrown into a trash bin? I’m not sure that the parents would dare to let their kids walk barefoot or crawl at the beach if they knew about all sorts of things one can find in the sand. On the other hand, I want to believe that all parents spend some time with their
Da li vam se deslio da vam se dete na plaži poseče na staklo? Koliko puta ste se igrali sa decom u pesku, kada ste naišli na parče limenke? Da li vam je prijatno da se vaše dete igra u pesku puno pikavaca? Volite li da vam se na kupaći zalepi žvaka? Da li važi pravilo na plaži kao i u kući, da se kora od banane, žvaka, bacaju u korpu? Nisam siguran da bi se danas roditelji usudili da puste decu da budu bosa, puze po plaži, kada bi videli šta sve ima u pesku. Sa druge strane želim da verujem da svaki roditelji izdvoji vreme da svom detetu na ličnom primeru pokaže, objasni kako se ponaša na plaži i gde je korpa za smeće. Pravila ponašanja, bez obzira da li ste sa decom ili solo na odmoru, važe
