Aqua-Tots

"I'm going to learn how to what...swim...are you sure...I'm only 11 months"
"Do I have to go in there?
Chloe did great and is in a mommy or daddy and me class with Coach Amy.  She is not in a private lesson, but she is the only one in the Tadpole Level, so it is like we get a private lesson for group price.
Chloe is learning how to reach for Mommy when sitting on the side of the pool. She is learning what it feels like to have her head underwater. She is also learning how to Monkey Walk (walk her hands along the side of the pool), blow bubbles, and kick her legs.  Coach Amy sings her songs with hand motions and Chloe mimics her.  We've had two lessons so far and plan on doing 12 this year and 12 next year. Next year Chloe should graduate and be a Minnow.
