Because children are always growing and learning new skills, your child’s abilities in the water will change from year to year and sometimes from month to month.
Remember that swimming is a sensori-motor skill. Similar to riding a bike or roller-skating, your child will not ‘forget’ what he or she learned, but may outgrow the body that learned these skills due to height and weight changes.
Infant Swimming Resource - BATH TUB SAFETY
- Never leave your child alone in the bathtub
- Don’t answer the phone, the door or get a towel -- if you need to leave take your child with you
- Watch your child from the moment they get in the tub until the moment they get out and dry off
- Don’t leave a baby or toddler in a bathtub under the care of another young child
Infant Swimming Resource - HOT TUB SAFETY
To prevent dehydration, or heatrelated illness, keeping the watertemperature below 100 degrees Fahrenheit is safer for small children
Find a way to prevent children from manipulating the controls for the hot tub. Once they find out how to activate the jets, they will, whether you are there or not
Infant Swimming Resource - BOAT & LAKE SAFETY
Lakes and rivers can be especially dangerous because of their dark and sometimes fast-moving water, therefore effective supervision of your child anytime he is around the dock, river or lake is especially critical
