Possible to say "It is a fun...."?

Native speakers of English say, "It is fun to swim."
The word "fun" is an uncountable noun.
You never say, "It is a fun to swim."

Then what about the following sentence that I found on the Internet?
"Everything can be a fun when we are children."
Is it because "Everything can be a fun" is followed by "when...."?
If this sentence is okay, is it possible to say, "It is a fun to swim when it is warm and the sun is shining."?
