Kids learn by playing. The more you can make learning to swim fun for your kids, the more they’ll like it, the quicker they’ll learn, and the more fun you’ll have teaching them. An important swimming skill is being comfortable putting your head underwater. Play this game to help your kids practice.
After your kids have practiced blowing bubbles and holding their breath underwater, have them put their heads underwater and lift up very slowly, until their eyes are just above the water. Have them pretend they’re crocodiles looking for prey, and you’re the prey. Let them pounce!
No biting, please.
