How do swimming lessons for 3-5 year olds work?
Our little group is for children aged 3–5. Lessons begin with play; The child first learns to be comfortable in the water, to put his face in the water and to hold on to the edge of the pool safely. Parents do not enter the water, but follow the lesson from the viewing area by the pool.
Our pool is closed and heated to 28 °C; Young children can study without getting cold. Groups consist of a maximum of 6 children and lessons are held 2 days a week, 1 hour each.
What happens in the first lesson?
The instructor sees the child's approach to the water, and if he is afraid, proceeds without forcing him. The appropriate group is determined based on this observation.
