WATER AND SWIMMING SAFETY LESSONS FOR THE WHOLE FAMILY
Whether you’re jumping on the boat for a day on the river or soaking in the kiddie pool in your backyard, practicing proper water safety can protect your family, others, and you from disaster. Learn more with these tips. Practice Swimming Teaching your children to swim at a young age can instill a lifelong habit that could save them and others. Swimming lessons are the best source for these habits, but if you’re unable to take your children to swimming lessons, then look to online, local, and written resources that teach the basics of the forward stroke, swimming underwater, and floating or treading. Learn as a family, safely practice the things you learn, and reap the benefits of this knowledge by protecting yourselves from water dangers. Know Your Body of Water Swimming in a pool is very different than swimming in the river or lake. In a pool, you should ensure the owners have outfitted the area with flotation devices and emergency kits. Instruct your kids on the various depths of the pool before they jump in, too. Meanwhile, in a lake or a river, it may not be so clear — literally. Create a safe distance
at which your kids can swim, and warn them to watch for
boats, other swimmers, and anglers. Additionally, read up on the possible
contaminants found in the specific body of water before jumping in. Learn Basic First Aid
