How can we organise the summer break for our children and make them have fun, enjoy it and learn something new? Should we organise their time for them once they have enough of sleep and when they finish their homework? Is a summer swim camp for children and parents a way to have a summer to remember? Not all children have grandparents in the countryside, a holiday house on a mountain, uncles living at the seaside where they could spend a part of their carefree summer break. In the scorching summer months, their playground is usually the asphalt in front of their buildings. And that is okay as this is a place where they grow up, play, fall in love, fall and get up… But if you have a chance, e

Kako organizovati deci letnji raspust, da se odmore, zabave, da uživaju, nauče nešto novo? Da li deci uopšte nešto organizovati kada se naspavaju, opuste od svih obaveza? Da li je letnji plivački kamp rešenje za decu i roditelje za nezaboravno leto? Nemaju sva deca babu, dedu na selu, vikendicu na planini, ujaka na moru, gde mogu bezbrižno da provedu deo letnjeg raspusta. Često je asfalt ispred zgrade, njihovo igralište tokom vrelih meseci. I to je skroz u redu, jer se i tu raste, igra, zaljubljuje, pada i ustaje… Ali, ukoliko postoji mogućnost upišite decu na letnji plivački kamp. Evo i zašto! Zašto su plivački kampovi dobri za decu? Deca na kampovima kroz sport, plivanje mnogo lakše razvij

The perfect time for your child to learn how to swim is the time when he/she feels ready for it, regardless of the season. However, the practice shows that summer is somehow the most relaxing period for getting in touch with the water for the first time. If you ask me, these are just a few out of many reasons to enrol your child in a swim school during summer months. Three “scorching” reasons which make summer the right time for your child to learn how to swim: 1. Refreshing with no fear: Apart from the fact that swimming makes children refreshed in any aspect, parents are likely to give up on taking their children to swimming during winter months. They say that their children are freezing t

Idelano vreme da vaše dete nauči da pliva je onda kada je spremno, bez obzira na godišnje doba. Međutim, praksa je pokazala da je leto uvek nekako opuštenije za prvi susret sa vodom. Iz mog iskustva, ovo su samo neki od letnjih razloga zašto dete da upišete tokom letnjeg raspusta u školu plivanja. Tri ”vrela” razloga zašto je leto pravi momenat da dete nauči da pliva: 1. Rashlađivanje bez straha: Bez obzira što plivanje osvežava dečiji organizam u svakom smislu, roditelji često zimi odustaju da decu upišu na plivanje. Kažu da se deca više smrzavaju nego što plivaju, često razbole. Ima tu istine. Zato je leto veći saveznik za neplivače, početnike. Voda je znanto prijatnija, kao i temperatura

When he was still at the university, he was one of the best and most proactive students, and at the same time employed by then best marketing agency in Novi Sad (Serbia) and beyond. Inspired by child’s play, imagination and various sport activities, in 2008 he launched a sport school “Olee!” for children from prenatal period to 14 years of age. For Swimming Dad as a #Blog guest, Bojan Crnojački is telling us what brings together swimming and child’s play, and what makes them different from each other, how important water and water environment are for the development of children from an early age and also how we can play at the playground – swimming pool. Imagine that the pool was your only p

Još za vreme studiranja bio je jedan od najboljih i najproaktivnijih studenata, a u isto vreme zaposlen u to vreme u najboljoj marketinškoj agenciji u Novom Sadu (Srbija) i šire. Inspirisan dečijom igrom, maštom kroz raznovrsne sportske aktivnosti, 2008. pokreće školicu sporta “oLLE!” za decu od prenatalnog perioda pa do 14 godina. Za Swimming Dad kao #Blog gost, Bojan Crnojački otkriva u čemu su plivanje i dečija igra isti, a po čemu se razlikuju? Koliko je voda i vodena sredina bitna u razvoju dece od malih nogu? Ali i kako se može igrati na igralištu - bazenu? Da je bazen tvoje jedino igralište kako bi se u njemu igrao? Čitanjem ovog pitanja, misli su mi se prvo našle u detinjstvu i odras

Why is it important for children to learn how to swim by playing!? First of all, it encourages a healthy development of breathing and thinking. Playing is the strongest antibiotic for everything, be it on the dry or in the water. Playing makes you laugh, fantasize and think. When playing, children move and make others move too. While playing, children learn how to share things and sometimes they also whisper to each other. Playing brings joy to their faces. While they are swimming and playing, children learn things about the others and also about themselves. They find it much easier to make distinctions between what is deep and what is shallow, what is close and what is far away… of course i

Zašto je važno da deca nauče da plivaju igrajući se!? Za početak, pospešuje zdrav razvoj disanja i razmišljanja. Igra je najači antibiotik za sve kako na suvom, tako i u vodi. U igri se smeje, smišlja, i opet razmišlja. Kroz igru se deca kreću, ali i druge pokreću. Uz igru se deli, ponekad šapuće. Igra donosi radost na lice. Dok plivaju i igraju se deca uče o drugima, a mnogo više o sebi. Lakše prave razliku šta je duboko i plitko, a šta blizu i daleko… naravno i koliko ima žutih patkica na ivici bazena. Drugo, da li znate koje je najveće “igralište” na svetu? Na planeti Zemlji, voda je najveće “igralište”. Njegova zapremina odgovara broju od oko 800 biliona olimpijskih bazena! Da li su dana
