May isNational Water Safety Month. Teaching children how to swim and be safe around water is one of the most important life skills parents can help their children learn. It not only saves lives; it builds confidence.
Research shows that participation in formal water safety and swim lessons can reduce the risk of drowning among children 1 to 4 years of age.
Participation in swimming helps teach children at a young age to strive for physical achievement.
Water safety and swim lessons promote a lifelong enjoyment of swimming, encourages healthy living and the prevention of chronic disease.
Learning to enjoy activities in and around the water nurtures social-emotional, cognitive and physical development.
