Parent/Child | Thursdays | 4:30-5:00pm
This combined program is designed for infants and toddlers, along with their caregivers, to build confidence and familiarity in the water while fostering a strong foundation in water safety and early swimming skills. In Water Discovery (Parent/Child A), the focus is on introducing young children to the aquatic environment. Caregivers will learn techniques to help their children feel comfortable in the water through songs, games, and guided activities. In Water Exploration (Parent/Child B), participants build on the skills learned in Water Discovery by encouraging toddlers to explore water movements, floating, and basic submersion with the support of their caregiver. Through both stages, caregivers actively participate in their child’s learning, creating a safe and nurturing experience that emphasizes water safety and fun. |
