Give the gift of swimming
Learning to swim not only provides little ones with vital life skills – it makes for quality family time too. And that’s why swimming lessons could make the perfect gift for the children in your life this Christmas.
Introducing babies to water from an early age ensures they are comfortable and confident when learning to swim. The benefits of getting them in the water from so young are plentiful – it’s proven to strengthen muscles, improve coordination and balance and help develop a strong heart and lungs, as well as provide a stimulating workout that improves baby’s eating and sleep patterns.
Parent-child bonding
As children learn to swim and spend more time in the water, they’ll develop those all-important life skills as well as build confidence. But lessons are also a great opportunity for one-to-one bonding. Away from the countless distractions of 21st-century living, swimming lessons provide that quality parent and child time, which can be extremely rewarding and offer parents a wonderful break in a busy schedule. With skin-to-skin contact alongside fun elements like water play, swimming lessons are a wonderful way to steal away and get time alone together.
