Swimming games for kids to play in the water

Swimming is not supposed to be just an exercise - it should be fun, too. One way to add more fun to the water is to play an organized game. Many games that can be played on land adapt well to the water, too. Volleyball, football, and even simple games like tag all work at the pool or beach.

Swim On!
