The results of this study indicate that children who take swimming activities have locomotor skills of gross motor development better than children who do not take swimming activities in school. The implication of this research is that swimming activities can be used as extracurricular activities that must be followed by children aged 4-5 years in a school institution that provides a choice of swimming activities
