Abstract

This document presents a way of knowing the influence between the aquatic environment and the stage of early childhood education. In it, an “IMA” program has been implemented for children between 5 and 6 years old, based on motor stories with themes close to them, to promote self-esteem. This program has been carried out with two groups, an experimental group where stories have been developed in the water and a control group developing traditional classes and where only the students were observed. In these groups, the authors wanted to value body and socio-affective self-esteem through Edina self-esteem booklets individually and anonymously. With the data obtained through the questions raised, results have been achieved with which to assess the self-esteem of children of these ages, highlighting benefits through the implementation of motor stories unlike traditional classes in which the results worsened, so it is demonstrated that the aquatic environment is an ideal place to work aspects related to emotional education at an early age, through playful aspects such as motor stories.
