Choosing a sport for a child is not an easy task. Different physical qualities are important in different kinds of sports. For example, flexibility is important in gymnastics, endurance is necessary for swimming and accuracy is an important quality in archery. Don't forget to take your child's individual qualities into account . It's not necessary that only girls can be good at gymnastics and boys can do only "men's" kinds of sport like football or basketball. So is there an efficient way on the best sports activities for a child? The Moscow Sports Department has developed a methodology from 5.5 to 12 years old. Special testing can be done at home. First, parents write down the boy's or girl's height, weight and date of birth. Then the child has to do special tests and perform sports exercises. These can be such exercises as push-ups, pull-ups, sit-ups, running and many others. It is not necessary , but the more exercises a child completes, the more accurate the results will be. To get the first results, it's enough to do at least 6 exercises. Each exercise has a physiological norm for the child's gender and age. Parents have to note down specific qualities such as strength, speed, flexibility, reaction, coordination, and memory. They will help suitable for the child. The system selects sports and divides them into groups — from those that will be perfect, to those that will need more efforts and training.

I spend my summer holidays at my granny’s. There are many things there to do. What I did most of the time - I swam in the sea and sunbathed. Sometimes I made a fire with my friends at the seaside and cooked potatoes there. It was wonderful. We told anecdotes to each other, and did everything we wanted. I also got used to walk alone in the forest.
When August was coming to its end, I went on a small voyage by ship. The ship name was “Sevastopol”.
But this summer wasn’t for me only sugar and honey. I have passed through the graduating exams after school and entering exams in the university. So the bigger part of my summer vacations I spent sitting with the books. Of course, it was not interesting, but I’m glad that I did it because now I’m a student of the best university in our country.
