[quote=Anonymous]We did it, and both kids learned to swim at 2.5. I don’t think it helps them learn the mechanics of swimming early, but for most kids (not all), it helps them not be afraid of getting water in their face/putting their head under. Some kids will resist or dislike it no matter how early you start. I agree with others that tons of pool time helps. Our apartment had a pool, and we went every day all summer. We visited indoor pools in the winter. We taught our kids to swim ourselves, then they learned the strokes when they started summer swim team at 5-6. [/quote]
