Swimming Lessons
Jaelyn had her first swim lesson today! I am in love with this swim program...it was just Jaelyn & another little girl for 30 minutes...2:1 ratio! She did awesome...I'm so proud of her! After strapping on 4 floaties to her back, she jumped right in with Ms. Angela. She showed no signs of being apprehensive...she was excited to swim! The mom of the other little girl couldn't believe that this was her first swimming lesson...in her words, "Jaelyn is a natural in the water!" At the end of the lesson, Angela told Jaelyn that maybe 1 more time with 4 floaties and then we are going down to 3! It is going to be fun to watch Jaelyn's transformation in the water!
Angela had her "running" in the water...getting comfortable in the water & the beginning stages of swimming on your belly!
In no time at all, Jaelyn was swimming across the pool without Angela holding onto her.
Pure enjoyment!
Jumping off the diving board...already! She was eager to jump...not anxious one bit!
The last few minutes the girls were able to have free time. Jaelyn chose a noodle & throwing balls. Such fun! Can't wait for next weeks lesson to see how far Jaelyn gets!
