So 23 days to go on Web Willys advent calendar

Sorry Katie, no chocolates here but..
WebWilly is setting a target to blog every day till Xmas
(inspired by the advent calendar)
Did you all eat a chocolate from your advent calendar yesterday
Sticking with the advent calendar Ill try and suggest ideas for all those stuck on their Kris Kringle, an idea a day, instead of a chocolate, not so fattening.

OK today's idea is something GREEN, that is thats good for the environment, that helps save the planet or water or maybe something the colour green, how simple is that.

WebWilly loves Xmas

Kids alive do the 5

Check out Kids alive do the 5 website for water safety this summer.

Living and playing in and around Hobsons Bay its a good idea to update yourself on Water safety.

This website is mainly about pools but information handy for @ the beach & bay as well.

Also VicSwim another good read or is that look

Laurie Lawrence believes that learning to swim from infancy will

• Teach children a respect for the water making them less likely to wander into dangerous situations
• Improve children’s physical development, coordination, health, fitness and muscle tone
• Build children’s independence, confidence and social skills
• Teach children a love of the water - a gift for life
• Teach children water safety skills which may one day save their life

During the mid 1970’s professor Liselott Diem from the German Sports College in Cologne conducted a study on preschool learn to swim. The study found children who participated in early swimming programs were more intelligent, more socially adventurous, better coordinated, and had greater self-esteem, independence and confidence than those who has not participated in baby swimming programs.

Havent found any written proof of these facts, so over to you…. online researchers
