SwimRight Pool service contractors in Scottsdale, AZ answer the question  

Does swimming make you an your children smarter? A study from the Griffith Institute for Educational Research in Australia showed that it just might! Everyone who swims understands that it is a form of exercise that is ideal for individuals of any age — from the young to seniors. The study, though, showed that children who swim developer a wider range of abilities and skills than their counterparts do. Swimming was shown to enhances motor skills, physical development, math skills and confidence. Athletic swimmers use basic math to calculate distance swum in laps, strokes, kicks and more. The act of swimming also takes a high level of concentration on breath and coordination of arms and legs.

The service contractors from SwimRight Pools explain that swimming is an activity that can be enjoyed by anyone at any age.  Swimming is an activity the entire family can enjoy and is a great way to get in shape without putting undue stress or strain on bones and joints – this is especially attractive for seniors. It’s also been shown that any form of exercise enhances mental and physical abilities in seniors.

Children who learn to swim at a young age reach developmental milestones earlier than their counterparts who do not swim. The Griffith research found significant differences between children who swam and those who didn’t; children who swim were found to have higher visual and motor skills, mathematical skills and confidence.

Regardless of this study, having a swimming pool in your own backyard is a great way for the family to bond and make memories – while enhancing everyone’s brain power!
