How it works
-
Let's start with the jellyfish! To swim like a jellyfish, lie on your back and move your arms and legs slowly and rhythmically. This simulates a whale swimming through the water.
-
Next, we will become whales! To swim like a whale, lie on your back and move your arms and legs slowly and widely. This simulates a whale swimming through the water.
-
Now it gets really fast! How about moving like a dolphin? To swim like a dolphin, lie on your stomach and move your arms quickly and powerfully.
-
Now it gets really dangerous! Swim quickly away from the great white shark. Simulate fast swimming movements.
-
To swim like a sea turtle, place a pillow on your back and alternate moving your arms and legs slowly and leisurely.
-
Finally, we will become crabs. To crawl like a crab, move one leg after the other sideways. Let's get fit together!
