How old is the baby to learn swimming better?

Babies usually learn to swim at the age of two or three weeks after birth. After the baby is born, hospitals and maternal and child health centers will advise the baby to swim simply. 1-3-year-old babies can strengthen their training intensity and learn various swimming skills.

1, when the baby is 0- 1 year-old: basic actions such as touching the face, holding your breath, floating and passive diving can be performed.

2. When the baby 1-2 years old, he can practice comprehensive fun training such as walking in water, breathing skills, autonomous diving, floating swimming and self-rescue in water. Master the skills of breathing in water and establish the awareness of safety in water.

3, the baby is 2.5-5 years old: learn to draw water, dive and swim freely. Based on sports, the combination of skills and intelligence is used to promote the development of thinking ability and improve thinking ability, innovation ability and problem-solving ability.

4, 5-6 years old baby: learn professional swimming strokes to help children build courage and confidence.

Special reminder: the baby must be accompanied by his mother or parents when swimming, and the water temperature is 29-32 degrees Celsius. The water temperature is kept at about 35℃ in summer, 37℃ in winter and 36℃ in spring and autumn. Baby's swimming consumes more physical strength, so it is recommended that the baby have a full meal 30-90 minutes before exercise. In addition, pay attention to arouse the baby's positive emotions. If the child just wakes up or feels unwell, be sure to do it when the baby is happy. Protein and sugar should be added in advance or after swimming to ensure the baby's sufficient physical strength.

Swimming time

The baby's swimming time is 10- 12 in the morning or 15- 18 in the afternoon. If the baby has a fixed swimming time, the exercise effect will be better. You can download some relaxing music in advance and play it when the baby is swimming, which can provide a safer environment for the baby and relieve the tension when the baby just enters the water. If you choose to exercise at home, you can use the living room and balcony as venues, which is more interactive and helps to promote parent-child communication, and it is also convenient to take photos or photography.
