The summer holiday is coming, that makes me excited. I have been looking forward to relax myself. I’d like to go swimming, climb mountains and saw several movies. I can play the basketball with my classmates. How a wonderful time I’ll have during the summer holiday! However, my parents think different. They don’t want me go out. They are afraid I’ll be knocked down by a truck, fall off a tree, or fight about others. Besides, they are worried that I may lose my ways. I really hate being treated like a bird kept in a cage. To get more freedom, I will try to persuade him.

In Poland swimming lessons are not compulsory,but most of the schools have them.I think that when it is only possible,there should be the swimming lessons for kids.It is a life-saving skill.

Mister Panda(France)

I come from France where swimming lessons in school are compulsory(dating back to Charlemagne).I even got my life-saving certificate in school.

Boilermaker(Expert in China)

There are swimming lessons in my city,but I was very disappointed in how they were taught.The kids spent 45 minutes of the one-hour lesson practicing strokes on dryland.They only spent 15 minutes in the water.All of the children panicked and sank immediately to the bottom.Then all of the parents scolded the children,telling them they weren’t paying attention to the teacher and that they were failures.

Yunzhang(China)

It is a pity that many Chinese athletes have won world championships in swimming while most schools don’t have the swimming facilities.Swimming is an essential life-saving skill that everyone should have access to.The earlier,the better.The government needs to put money into the popularity of the sport.

Outdoor Word Game:

All you need to do is setting up many huge letters that can be easily moved. These letters will help kids spell out certain words. Teenagers would also love something like this as it gives them opportunity to invest their time in learning new words.

Spray Painting:

To bring out the creativity in a person, an activity centered on spray painting is the perfect way to get those creative juices flowing. All you need to do is providing plain white T-shirts and some cans of colored spray paint. It will be quite surprising to see some of the original ideas that will flow from individuals.

Outdoor Twister:

A person will be in charge of monitoring the game and will call out colors which can be placed outdoors. Participants have the task of placing either their hands or legs on the same color. A fun and exciting game focuses on hand-eye coordination (协调).

The Maze (迷宫)：

One of the most fun games is the hallway maze game where a maze is constructed (建造) from either toilet paper or strings of paper. The chosen participant is then asked to make his way through the maze within a limited time without touching paper. This is one of the best and entertaining summer camp idea for kids and adults also.
