Swim Lessons


In case you were wondering, that was Sam's artistic impression of a blowfish.

Started swim lessons at the beginning of the month. He needed a bit of brushing up on his skills from last summer, plus he needs all the physical outlets he can get. We go ever Tuesday and Thursday afternoon. He loves it!
He can swim under water without a floatation device, but with 3 other children in his class the teacher makes him wear the belt. He hates that!
Sam is also the only child that will jump off the block. He is such a show off! He is pretty cute trying to convince the other boys that it is indeed way fun and way safe.

go Sam! :)
I can't believe they make him wear that thing. Every swim class my kids have ever been in all say flotation devices are a big no-no for teaching kids to swim!

My thoughts exactly... it's the YMCA.

I may switch him to another class in March at a different Aquatics center.
