[quote=Anonymous]When DS was five had had taken rec center group lessons three times and could maybe dog paddle five feet. Now he's six. I wanted him ready for the summer (I have two younger kids. I won't go to the pool with three non swimmers) so we started private lessons in April. He had eight in two weeks and then once a week since then. It has taken longer than I thought but now he can jump off the diving board and float on his back, can do the length of the pool with flippers on and can do the width of it no problem on his back or front unassisted. We have a way to go but I'm much more comfortable with his abilities. I think his level at age five was pretty typical. [/quote]
