How can I teach my child to swim?
Floating Swimsuits
Floating swimsuits help to train a young, inexperienced swimmer. Note that some cheaper brands of floating suits merely rise up around the child's face, rather than helping them with buoyancy. So, don't skimp on the price. A properly fitting suit should keep the wearer's chin above water. When entering the pool with your little swimmer, do so slowly with a “hug hold”. Don't rush anything, as the child may become very nervous. Also, don't mistake the floating swimsuit for a replacement for you- you still need to always be by the child's side.
