Can children dive?

Diving is a sport that many people enjoy. Many children also want to dive because they have a fascination for the seabed. However, many parents are worried that diving will cause certain harm to their children's health and dare not let their children learn to dive. In fact, as long as you choose a good coach and are able to accompany your children personally, you can let your children get involved in the sport of diving at the right time and in the right amount!

1. Is there any harm in learning diving for children?

Currently, there is no data showing that there will be direct or indirect harm to the body for children starting diving at the age of 10, but young children's self-protection and adaptability are not as good as adults, so it is best for them to dive with a guardian.

2. What kind of coach should I choose for my child?

A university professor may be full of knowledge, but he or she may not be able to teach middle school students well. Because children at this age have their own learning characteristics. Similarly, an excellent coach may not be able to handle teenagers. When helping your child choose a coach, it is best to find out how many children the coach has taught. This experience is very important.

3. Do children take longer to study than adults?

Every child has his or her own characteristics, and the standard learning time is still 3-4 days. If the child is very uncomfortable, it is recommended to discuss with the coach to study for a few more days or retain the student status before studying.

4. Is English teaching better or Chinese teaching better?

It is best to learn in the mother tongue, because children's understanding is different from that of adults, so it is better to learn in the mother tongue that children are familiar with.

The benefits of diving are not only that the fantastic world in the water brings great spiritual enjoyment, but also that regular diving can develop muscles throughout the body, improve physical qualities such as strength, speed, endurance and flexibility, and cultivate people's courage, tenacity, cooperation and prudence, increase intelligence, self-confidence and leadership, and improve learning performance.

For children, they can not only learn how to install complex equipment, but also master necessary underwater survival skills. After becoming qualified divers, they will find that they have learned a lot, not just diving, but also knowledge such as physics, physiology, oceanography, etc. Furthermore, if they continue their educational journey into the fields of geography, anthropology and history.

Another benefit for families who scuba dive together is that it can help children develop a helpful character. When a child obtains a diving certification, he or she will become a parent or a common diving buddy.

Family dive buddies can encourage and collaborate with each other to continue improving diving skills through practice. As long as you have similar interests, you can expand the range of dive sites, enjoy underwater fun together, and share this as a precious memory for a lifetime.

The relationship between family members can therefore be well maintained and promoted. At the same time, this is also a good opportunity to cultivate children's awareness of marine environmental protection, and it is also of great significance to the education of children's world view and outlook on life.
