With 99 stunts, games, and exercises for nonswimmers and swimmers of all skill levels, Water Fun and Fitness makes structured water play safe, exciting, and most of all, fun. This book offers fresh ideas for aquatic and recreational specialists who work with large, integrated groups of K-12 students. And parents can use these activities to create hours of instructive fun for their children. Author Terri Elder, a university aquatic coordinator, Water Safety Instructor Trainer, and longtime swimming teacher, shows you how to help kids overcome their fear of the water, develop self-esteem, learn basic and advanced aquatic skills, increase their fitness levels, and have fun in the water. With adaptable activities for youths of all ages and skill levels, Water Fun and Fitness proves that no one has to be a star swimmer to enjoy the water.
