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. This is especially true of swimming skills that are essential and that, for safety reasons, have to be practiced enough for them to become automatic. Try these games to help your kids practice getting out of the pool. They won’t even realize they’re practicing.
Try combining imagination games with things your kids know how to do on dry land to make it fun. Have your child pretend to be a rock climber or a mountain climber. How about a knight or a princess climbing up or down a tower? How about an acrobat?
