A pool is like a giant bathtub where people can swim and have fun. Instead of just one person, many people can use it at the same time. It’s filled with lots of water, just like the ocean but much smaller and safer because there are no big waves or sea creatures. People wear special clothes called swimsuits when they go in, and sometimes they use floaties to help them stay on top of the water.
Think of a pool as a big blue bowl. If you fill a bowl with water, you can splash around with your hands. In a pool, you can splash around with your whole body! There are also fun things like slides that let you swoosh into the water or diving boards to jump off and make big splashes.
A pool can also be a place to learn new things. People can learn how to swim there, which is like learning to move through the water like a fish. There are even games you can play, like throwing a ball or racing from one end to the other. Pools are great for making new friends and having lots of fun.
