Swim Lessons


So this year we found out about Splash Week at the YMCA (thanks Heidi!). They offer swim classes with an emphasis on water safety to all experience levels. My kids don't swim; at all. I kept meaning to get them into lessons but kept getting distracted. This was just to good to pass up though. Their class only cost $15 per kid for 5 lessons! Woo hoo! And now they can both swim like an Olympian. Okay, not really. But Ethan can now float on his back by himself and Libby is no longer terrified of water where she can't touch the bottom.

The instructors were fabulous and so sweet. Libby was very nervous but they were so patient with her. Ethan was a little more confident so they stayed back and let him try things on his own. We will be doing it again next year.
