Scared to Swim

Lillian wants to take swimming lessons, like some of her friends.

However, it’s very noisy at the swimming pool, especially in the children’s pool, where things can get wild at times. It frightens Lillian and makes her back away from the pool.

“What if I sink to the bottom and no one notices?” Lillian says, worried.

Once Dad and Lillian start practicing together, she conquers her fear of swimming.

Uppoava uimari (Finnish)

Lilja tahtoo samaan uimakouluun kavereidensa kanssa.

Uimahalli on kuitenkin meluisa paikka ja lastenaltaan touhu välillä villiä. Lilja vetäytyy säikähtäneenä syrjään.

”Entä jos uppoan altaaseen, eikä kukaan huomaa?” Lilja huolestuu.

Pelko voitetaan, kun isä ja Lilja aloittavat omat rauhalliset uimaharjoitukset.

ខ្លាចហែលទឹក (Khmer)

លីនចង់រៀនហែលទឹក ដូចមិត្តភក្តិនាងខ្លះ។

ប៉ុន្តែ នៅអាងហែលទឹកមានសម្លេងរំខានខ្លាំង ជាពិសេសនៅក្នុងអាងទឹកកូនក្មេង ដែលធ្វើអោយមានភាពច្របូកច្របល់នៅពេលខ្លះ។ វាធ្វើឱ្យលីនភ័យខ្លាច ហើយធ្វើឱ្យនាងចេញឆ្ងាយពីអាងទឹក។
