 The Parent-child Aquatic Program consists of water-acclimation and aquatics-readiness activities for children. In these classes, parent/child teams learn to respect the value of games and play for the child.  Socialization and water safety are also an intricate part of this class.  Play makes the learning experience positive, and sharing the experience reinforces trust between the parent and child.
