[quote=Anonymous]We taught our son how to swim, and my parents taught me. It's not really rocket science. I think it just clicks at one point after they have been in a water for a period, are old enough, and see others doing it. I think our DS was 6 when he learned to swim -- a little later than some. He loved the water and went frequently but wasn't comfortable swimming yet without water wings. We periodically helped him by holding him up and giving him practice, but finally, he just had to take the leap and try. We went on a trip soon after he turned 6 to visit cousins who had a small pool in their backyard. He was in it every day and just figured it out.[/quote]
