EN: to splash about in water, to wade playfully
This is what you do at the beach when you're too scared to actually swim in the deep part. You just stay in the shallows and magtampisaw—splashing your feet, kicking the water, and generally just enjoying the feeling without the commitment of a full swim. It's the aquatic equivalent of 'window shopping'. Also what kids love to do in puddles after it rains.
Implies shallow water and a playful, carefree attitude.
