[quote=Anonymous]Find a pool with a shallow end where she can stand comfortably. Bring a soft ball and play catch (obviously not when it’s crowded). Throw the ball so that she has to occasionally stretch out for it. She’ll start lunging, pushing off, gliding her arms out, and getting her face wet — all precursors to actual swimming. Or you can play tag and get the same result. Keep it low-key and don’t nag her to practice; just get her comfortable moving through the water. [/quote]
