水遊び (mizu asobi) refers to water play, a popular activity enjoyed by children and families, especially during warm weather. It often takes place in pools, beaches, or parks, where kids can splash, swim, and engage in various water games. This activity promotes physical exercise and social interaction among participants. In Japan, 水遊び is commonly associated with summer festivals and outdoor events. Families may bring toys like water guns or inflatable floats to enhance the fun. Safety is important, so parents often supervise children to ensure a safe and enjoyable experience while they play in the water.
