[quote=Anonymous]I have a 5.5 year old DS who still isn't swimming. I'd like for him to be on swim team (it's a junior swim team that starts at 5, but older siblings will be on the real swim team at the same time) all summer long. He's athletic, smart and not afraid of the water. We taught his older siblings and they caught on quick. DS just isn't getting it. He too wants to be on swim team. We had him in swim lessons at a big company, but after 2 months he hadn't progressed even a tiny bit. They told me it might take 6 months to move up a level (and a level was like going from nothing to sticking your head in the water). It just felt like they wanted our money and they weren't going to push DS out of his comfort zone. What can we do to help him? Is there something like infant swim rescue but for big kids? Or a strict coach who doesn't just let him splash around for $75 a lesson.[/quote]
