1st Swimming Lesson

She wasn't a big fan of floating on her back.

Last Saturday, Kendall had her very 1st swim lesson at the Y. She did ok. I think she was kinda scared at times, but that is understandable. These lessons are 30 min and run for 6 weeks. The instructor (Danielle) said we will be doing a lot of the same stuff every week so the child can learn it. The skills we worked on were letting your child hang onto the ledge & crawl out of the pool, Danielle said we could help by putting their knee up on the ledge, and Kendall did this. Then they were suppose to jump in the water on "Ready, set, go!". Kendall jumped in with me holding onto her. She practiced floating on her back with me holding her. She didn't like this at all though. They were suppose to throw a ball n then practice swimming after it. Then we swam in a circle & sang some songs. So we'll see how next week goes.
