The same way school and kindergarten represent a big change for a child, water and swimming are also a big unknown to some kids. If apart from the resistance to swimming and water there is a specific fear on the one hand, and a good communication between the parents and the coach, and the willingness to enrol a kid in a swim school, make him/her learn how to swim, enjoy and have fun on the other, these situations can be avoided with the joint efforts of both parents and the c

Iskreno, koristio sam svaki sekund da sa njima budem u vodi. Ali, da budem tata. Kada nisam bio ja, mama je igrala glavnu ulogu.
