regrading swimming aids
eh i know im going to run a little contrary to mummies here, but just a bit of info from the other side
swimming aids like neckfloats and floats are actually not advisable if you wan the kids to really learn swimming (as opposed to 'playing in water'). coz swimming aids give false security to the child. eg in swimming it is important for the child to get used to having his ears wet and face half submerged in water (nose above lah).most importantly, the child should not panic when they feel water over their face, or when floating on water (if you notice, floating on water involves having their ears, back of head, and bit of face in water..quite scary if the child is not used to it..)
that is why in many swimming schools for infants and todds, no swimming aids encouraged until they are around 2 years old (when they are better able to swim independently) in order to help them correct their strokes etc...
JTS...maybe when the child is more comfortable, the aids should be slowly removed.concern is if they actually fall into water, they learn at least to turn around, and kick to the nearest edge and climb up
...im a paranoid mummy...the worse case scenario kind..kakaka
