ABSTRACT
People with Down syndrome suffer from many social, psychological and motor function problems. Current research has looked at swimming programmes to assess their impact on such problems. The programme described here was applied for a 3-month period, with music being used as one of the tools. The results were very positive and children showed significant improvement in agility, self-esteem and behaviour patterns. The programme is thus effective in enhancing the integrated development of children with Down syndrome
