As we transition from the relaxing days of summer to the busy schedules of fall, consider keeping a summer favorite on the to-do list. Swim class offers kids a fun, empowering activity that also provides them with life saving skills. Here are a few reasons you should keep swim class on your schedule.

Swim lessons at Aqua-Tots Swim School are what are littles look forward to most each week. The 30 minute group lessons, allows kids to make new friends and get special attention from their instructor (and Aqua-Tots has the BEST instructors). My youngest looks forward to class the most because it gives him ‘school’ time that he craves.

Even though our fall schedule is filled with school, soccer and seasonal activities, we will be keeping up with swim class for these reasons:

  1. Knowing how to swim is an important life skill that can keep your child safe in an emergency.
  2. Consistency. Not only does consistent classes help kids maintain their skills in the pools, it also helps kids have reliable touch points in their schedule as other things around them change.
  3. Physical fitness. Swimming is a great form of exercise and now that kids will be spending more time sitting in school, lessons can help keep them moving – even as the weather changes.
  4. It’s fun! Your kids will count down to the next week class and you’ll enjoy watching them on the sidelines (whether it’s cheering them on or catching up on ‘me-time’).

Aqua-Tots Swim School is not only great for school aged children but babies as young as 4 months old can attend Parent & Tot classes. It’s the perfect day time activity, especially during cooler months because the pools are heated to ensure comfort during class.
