[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It's really interesting to see all the positive responses to Goldfish.  We put DD in just before she turned two with the goal of 1) getting her out of the house regularly, and 2) getting her comfortable in the water.  She went every week with her granny for about a year and a half, and we finally pulled her out when I asked how swim class went and she said "great!" but upon further questioning I learned she had never put her face in the water (this was confirmed with granny, not just relying on a 3.5 year old here).  I wasn't expecting a butterfly stroke out of a preschooler but seriously, WTF.

In retrospect all she learned from Goldfish was flipper flipper fin fin to get out of the pool.  In something like 80 weeks of "lessons"!  I've had this conversation IRL with other parents and only heard "yeah that place is a waste of money" so it's strange that everyone here has kids that progressed so far and so fast with the same program.

You waited 1.5 years to ask how it was going?

That doesn't seem right though- DD only went through the Glider 1 level but I was there watching and she was putting her face in the water every week.  [/quote]
