United States Academy of Pediatrics recently suggested, not suitable for children under 4 years too early to start learning how to swim, because the body development of children of this age are not suitable for swimming.
Because the baby is growing up in the mother\'s amniotic fluid, and health experts have been mistaken for infants are born to swim, and many experts even suggested that the children should learn to swim as soon as possible.
Advocates of children\'s learning to swim experts believe that young children learning to swim has a lot of benefits. Early childhood is the most strong period of growth in one\'s life, take advantage of this golden age swimming activities, physical and mental development of a world of good. Young children often swim makes myocardial developed and strong metabolism, heart beat slower than the same age child care and strong, which prepared the conditions for greater physical load. Children\'s swimming the complex actions is completed under the domination of the brain, so swimming also improves the brain\'s function in the process, for the brain\'s ability to respond faster to external environment, good intellectual development. Young children often swim, improved respiratory function, characterized by large lung capacity, suffocating in a long time. Regular swimming can consume too much fat, muscles of all body parts, to be well-proportioned body. In addition, regular swimming can also enhance the capacity of cold tolerance and disease resistance.
However, the United States Academy of Pediatrics recently has recommended that parents of children under the age of 4, not to let their children too early to start learning how to swim, because the body development of children of this age are not suitable for swimming.
Studies suggest that infants are born swim is actually misleading. Due to the density of the human body is slightly lower than water, anyone who is not afraid of water, can relax muscles, can swim can also float in the water. Water fear psychology of humans in the form on the day after tomorrow, a panic to the water, desperately struggling, easy to swallow water breathes out, but easy to sink. Fear psychology of babies has not formed on the water, to easy to relax in the water, so easier than adult swim float up.
United States researchers say children less than 5 years, in principle, not suitable for learning to swim. The conclusions have 3 reasons: (1) water in the low gravity environment are not conducive to child bone growth, and (2) children\'s nervous system is not perfect, learning to swim is not security, and (3) swimming of high intensity training is also easy to damage children\'s bodies. But they also recognize that there is no exact data show that in the end when the children started to swim the best. Some studies show that about children to 4 years old generally have the ability to learn to swim, but in terms of neuromuscular development degree, they also need special guidance to ensure security of the train. Researchers warn parents of the child, it is best not to send the child to attend by repeated middle way to exercise children sink into the water swim skills training courses, because this so-called first psychological training to train children do not fear the water will only increase the fear psychology of children on the water, which causes the child adult on the psychological obstacles of water.
According to United States Pediatrics Institute said, currently has 500 to 10 million name United States child care and the school-age Qian children has accept had a species form of water Shang courses training, in some area, years full 3 aged of children on can registration participate in swimming class, but according to some courses of organizers said, 3 aged around children of swimming courses just is to let they early began and water deal only, does not Professor special of skills. To this end, the researchers cautioned that parents of children in the choice of whether to let your children take swimming lessons and participate in what course should be cautious as a good, high expectations and not to the child, finds them after learning will certainly become a swimming expert.
