Swimming lessons

With summer temperatures around, pools are cleaned and spruced up to receive hot, sweaty bodies longing to cool off after a hard day's work.

With yearly statistics of tragic drownings of toddlers and children, it is wise to get your toddlers and children water ready and water safe.

In this respect, no chances are taken and here Mommy Blanche and Christoff are enjoying tuition from the swimming instructress. The little one is very compliant with all the excersizes and instruction and hopefully this will help him to gain confidence and to become adept at looking after himself once in the pool.

Although not yet two, an early start is good.

Thinking of the drownings, there is really no other option but to ensure that the pool is safe when not in use (pool net or proper fence) and even better that your children will know what to do once in the water.

We are enjoying lovely summer's weather and temperatures while waiting for the summer rainfall to start.
