Noah and Sophia had their first day of swimming lessons today. They were great in the pool with the their teacher, Ms. Kristin. I really want him to take lessons because he has absolutely no fear of the water. Usually he goes in with us with water wings (we call them "swimmies"), but these lessons are to get him used to being in the pool without them. He loves to be thrown and go entirely under the water and bob back up, but that's all with the water wings on. It's definitely time for real lessons. We'll see how it goes, but maybe we'll need to do private one-on-one lessons at some point.
One of the things they learned today was how to sit at the side and then turn over onto their stomachs to slip into the pool.
The teacher also tried to show them how to be comfortable on their backs.
Noah seemed a little rigid.
