Your chances of teaching your children to swim are much better
if you plan carefully the steps to be taken. A casual attitude toward your
children's initiation to the water can bring about troublesome consequences. A
parent who expects to test his four-year-old's gifts in the water on a Saturday
afternoon outing can do a great deal of harm. Thus, the book
stresses how important it is for parents to understand that they
must adhere to a step-by-step plan in teaching a child to swim.
In order to keep you from overlooking an important skill—for the next skill
taught will depend on the preceding one—this book provides a summary at the end
of each lesson. It is a good idea to remove these summaries from the book and attach them to a clip board. Your clip board should be within
easy reach, so that you may have a quick reminder when in
doubt. For example, the purpose of a cork float is to teach
children how, from a face-down float, to get their feet back
onto the bottom of the pool. It is necessary, therefore, that
they learn the cork float before they learn the face-down float.
Naturally, once you become familiar with the step-by-step
method, you can elaborate and embroider the method to your
heart's content.
