[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Drop swimming and come back to it when he's 5 or 6. Gymnastics is excellent for a low tone child, if he'll do it (mine refused both).[/quote] +1![/quote] -1, the older you wait to start swimming the harder it is. The older kids struggle much more. Gymnastics is great for 3 year olds and lots of fun. But, starting swim around or before 4 is best. Both are good in different ways. I would do each weekly.[/quote] I disagree. If you have a kid who is terrified of the water, pushing it will not always help. I say go swimming for fun every few weeks for a year, no pressure, then pick up swim lessons. I know plenty of kids who picked up swimming really easily at 5-7 years old.[/quote]
