Swimming Lessons

Sister Parker teaches swimming lessons and what started out as a social activity turned into a MAJOR success! Swimming lessons have been so much fun for me and Kelsey. I sit and talk to moms, every day, and Kelsey gets to play and swim with her friends, every day. It is a win win. We love Sister Parker and we love swimming lessons.

Kelsey was super afraid of the water at the beginning of the summer and now is a swimming champ. At one point she even glided to Sister Parker while kicking her feet! It was so exciting.

Floating

Jumping to the bottom to get a ring

Gliding without her teachers support

Jumping off the diving board and side of the pool without support from her teacher.She used to only jump in the pool if she could immediately grab our hands. Now she is learning to jump in, be in the water for a couple seconds, and then reach for her teachers hands. It was a scary thing to learn, but she is doing so well.

I am so proud of the improvements that Kelsey has made. Even if she doesn't want to do something she tries it (in swimming lessons I mean). Swimming lessons have been such a positive experience.
