Rocket Ship

He loves swimming!

Swim Lessons ended with a bang!

So, he wanted to float on his back after he finished, so the instructor told him to do it by the wall (in the 4ft area). There was another boy next to him trying to float/swim and they got tangled up with each other and kept pushing each other under to get up. So, we all waited a couple seconds thinking they'd get to the wall-and when they didn't, I jumped in to get them both out. It wasn't the instructors fault-but boy-it shook the two boys up!!! After that, they gave the kids a little lesson on not hanging onto one another and how to save people/kids when they need help.

He has improved so much since the beginning of lessons-I hope I can continue teaching him with the younger one with us.

Floating on back his back...singing...
“I’m a little pancake
On my back
I’m a little pancake
Nice and flat
I’m little pancake
On my back
Flip me over
Just like that”

last swim lesson! Rocket ship...

Ms Lori said he did really well and they do more lessons in Sep. I'm not sure if we'll do another session then or not.
