[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We were living in Southern California at the time and DD being able to swim was imperative since everyone has an in-ground swimming pool. Yes, she got private swim lessons at 2.5 (maybe a little younger) - a special course to teach her to surface, turn and doggie padded to the side of the pool and hold on. I am of the belief that any and all swimming lessons at any age are valuable. Your DC won't learn the breast-stroke at 2.5 but she may learn to survive if she falls in the water. [/quote] +1 I was raised in Scottsdale, Arizona and my parents still live there. Every night there is a story of a child drowning on the news. Drowning in pools is the #1 cause of death in the south and southwest in children under 5 - and the only cause of death that is 100% preventable. [/quote]
