[quote=Anonymous]Swim lessons are really better once a kid already is really comfortable in the water to learn form. And I personally only did the summer lessons here, that were every day for 2 weeks, rather than the ones in the winter that were twice a week. Once a week would definitely be worthless. I agree with the PP - lots and lots of swimming. Get a summer pool pass and take them as often as you can stand it. Mine just learned that way a lot quicker than any lesson. My children are the same age gap as yours and my younger one actually progressed faster than my older one bc she didn't mind putting her head under. I will also add that sometimes one of my kid wouldn't pass to the next level over something stupid, or something subjective, so I would just sign them up for the next level despite that bc they get complacent and do better with a challenge.
