Teach Your Child To Swim Using The Power Of Play
As a parent teaching your child to swim, I have a brand new book that is an absolute must-have and is available now!
Hi, Mark here. I hope all is well with you.
My exciting new book is here! 'Teach Your Child To Swim Through Games and Play' uses games to teach swimming. Use the power of play to teach basic swimming skills to your children. Teaching them to swim could not be easier!
Using games and play to teach your child how to swim will not only open their mind to imagination and engagement, but it will help to distract them from the fears and anxieties often associated with the new sensations of being in the water and the expectations that come with learning how to swim.
Discover 60 games that use little or no equipment and that cover all of the essential basics of learning to swim, including breathing, floating, submerging, gliding, kicking and pulling. Explore games and activities that teach them all. Click here for more details, or click the button below.
