Annie and Nathan love the water! Annie started lessons when she was 3 years old and is quite a proficient swimmer (but still is learning new swimming strokes and building up endurance). Nathan was in swim camp last summer, but we didn’t feel was quite ready for weekly lessons until now. So on Thursday nights I get to take both kids to the pool for an hour to take swimming lessons! They both were so excited to get in the pool! Here are pictures from their first lesson!
Nathan did great! He listened well to his teachers and is well on his way to floating on his back and stomach…even after just one lesson.
Annie was already swimming up and down the entire length of the pool! She took it well when the director moved her from Level 6 (where she was a year ago) back to Level 5 because she had lost some of the endurance over the past year…which her teacher said was very normal if she wasn’t swimming regularly. I am sure her competitive nature will take her back up to Level 6 in no time!
After lessons I let the kids play in the outdoor pool for a little bit before heading home! As you can see…even after an hour of swimming…they are all smiles!
