My twins are quickly approaching a year old (like in two weeks) and I can't wait to get them in swim lessons. I wish I had started them sooner, because there are so many benefits, but starting them at a year old is good too! Did you know that you can start your little ones in swim lessons at Goldfish Swim School as early as four months old?!
Here are a few of those benefits to starting your babies out young:
Balance
The core balance achieved by learning to swim is beneficial to babies,
particularly as they are growing and learning how to control their
bodies. Sitting up during swim class and balancing on the ducky mats is
essential to strengthening the core, which helps babies learn how to
crawl, sit up, stand, walk and run! And this sets the stage for years of
success, which is something to celebrate!
Confidence
Molly (Twin A) is so ready to start walking, but always needs that extra push. She gets so excited when she gets to moving her feet and you can tell that she feels accomplished. When your baby sees what he or she can accomplish during swim
class, his or her confidence skyrockets too! I even see this in my older girls. I mean, my confidence gets a little boosts when I set goals and accomplish them! The best part is that Goldfish swim instructors use integrity, compassion and trust
to bring out that stellar confidence in your babies!
Socialization
I don't know about you, but I am all about getting out of the house with my kids and taking them to do fun things. If you’re a stay-at-home parent like me and your baby isn’t in a care program
with other kids, the early socialization impact of swim classes gives
your baby a chance to learn how to interact appropriately with new
people. (And you’ll also be able to be around other adults!) Truly a
GOLDEN experience for parents and kids!
Entertainment
Did you know that kids learn the most from birth to age 5 and surprisingly, most of what they learn is best learned through play! The entertainment
your baby gets during swim class is not only a great learning
opportunity, but also great stimulation — part of Goldfish Swim School’s dedication to WOW customer service. (Psst…There’s a good chance swim days may be your best nap days for baby, too!) I know first hand that it most definitely wears my 5 and 3 year old out and they always take a good nap afterwards. Win!!
Builds Strength
Your little one uses new muscle groups during swimming that they
haven’t had a chance to strengthen otherwise and that exercise is a
great introduction to the world of healthy movement, which is so important for other areas of
development. There's no reason why you shouldn't start them early!
Most importantly, your baby learns about water safety and what to do if they are near or in water. That's something you can't a price on in my opinion and Goldfish Swim School has been great for my girls.
