Swim lessons

We enrolled Clara in swim lessons this summer. She LOVES them. She loves everything about water, swimming, pools. The very first class, she was so excited, it was very hard to get her to practice anything. She just wanted to squirm and splash around. Since then, she has calmed down and is "learning" more.

The classes are not really what I expected. They are designed to get toddlers used to being in the water and if possible be in the water on their own. I thought there would be more instruction from the teacher but there is not. So really I just paid $$ for me to teach my child to swim. Anyway, Clara doesn't know any better and she is enjoying the lessons so I guess it is worth it (and we have bonding time).
