[quote=Anonymous]My kids were early swimmers, swimming across the pool, or down to retrieve things from the bottom before their 3rd birthdays, swimming 25 yards before their 4th. I didn't really teach them, we just went to the pool a lot, and played and it just happened. My oldest is now a swim instructor, and he's been watching videos on teaching kids how to swim, and he's been getting videos of people pouring water on their babies heads, saying that it prepares them to swim. Both of my kids, as babies, loved to be in a shower with an adult, and later loved to play in the bathtub with the shower running. I wasn't thinking "Oh, this will make them swimmers", I was just keeping them busy, but they certainly had water on their head and running down their faces a lot. So, now I'm curious, those of you whose kids swam early, did they have similar experiences? [/quote]
