The Playful Behavior in Swimming and Its Interferences in 1-3 Years Child's Development

摘要

During infancy between 1-3 years the game is the predominant activity of the child. Within the playful behavior are embedded interests and forms of expression of the child's body, family, as well as the curiosity about the surroundings. Game behaviors allow a pertinent observation of the level of perception of reality and the relationship between child and educator, as the games scenarios lead to experience acquisition. Swimming through games contributes to the development of a balanced body and can be easily practiced by the children who do not have a very good physical condition and who usually don’t like motion.
