30 Minute Classes for 7 weeks
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.
