Aqua Kids 1

Recommended for ages 3 to 5

Participants become comfortable in the water learning basic swimming skills without a parent or guardian in the water with them. Safety topics include basic water safety, healthy swimming, safe water entry, helping yourself and others in an emergency, use of life jackets, safe weather conditions for swimming, and waterpark safety.

Skills (may be performed with flotation or assistance):

• Enter the water independently
• Submerge head
• Bob underwater and blow bubbles, 3 times
• Front float, face in water, 3 sec.
• Front glide, face in water
• Back float, ears in water, 3 sec.
• Back glide, ears in water
• Roll over: front to back/back to front
• Paddle stroke on front, face in or out of water, 5 yd.
• Monkey, Tree, Soldier arms on back, ears in water, 5 yd.

All swim classes include discussion of important water safety topics. During the first two lessons, each child will complete a brief skill assessment to ensure they are placed in the correct level. Families will receive a progress report halfway through the session and again at the end. It is common and completely normal for children to repeat a level as they build confidence and master all required skills.
