On April 21, 2024, at 131 SU “Kliment Arkadievich Timiryazev” in Mladost district, a test event #SWIM was held, which helped children aged 4 to 7 years, along with their parents, to overcome their fear of water and develop basic swimming skills. Supported by the Erasmus+ program and realized in partnership with the “Adapted Sports” Club and the Center for Personal Development Support ‘Sofia’ Sports School, the event included various exercises for relaxation, underwater breathing, and fun water games that stimulate both the physical and mental development of the children. Parents actively participated in the activities, and experienced swimming coaches provided guidance and support throughout the process. Thanks to their efforts and excellent organization, the event was both fun and educational, contributing to the children’s healthy lifestyle and improving their swimming skills. Each participant received a special gift and left with positive memories of the experience.
Earlier in the day, the final partnership meeting of the project took place, gathering the international consortium that executes the innovative initiative #SWIM - Swim Without Fear, which carries out activities until June 2024. Representatives of the consortium had the opportunity to review the activities of #SWIM carried out so far and to approve the children’s book for overcoming hydrophobia at an early age. To date, various tools have been developed to ensure children perceive the aquatic environment as a fun and positive activity - an augmented reality app, a song for children, and a coloring book, all available for free download by parents and/or sports organizations on the project’s website: www.myswim.org.
