[quote=Anonymous]You really need to have your kid in the water more, even just to play. The swim lessons are a component of learning to swim but kids need to play and explore water outside of swim lessons. My kid was in swim lessons for a while but I didn't see massive improvement until we took a week-long trip to see family where my kid was in the lake playing and swimming for hours each day. So, find a neighborhood pool and have at it. Another tip that my kid's former swim instructor offered: have the kid wear goggles. It's fun for kids and makes them want to put their faces in the water. I wanted my child to be comfortable in the water without goggles, and once I could tell he was, we purchased goggles. He likes wearing them and likes swimming even more now. [/quote]
