Zander loves the water. We go to the pool and the lake a lot so I thought it would be wise to put him in swim lessons. At first it seemed promising and he was so excited before we got there. As soon as he got dressed and saw the water, he was not having a bit of it. For the 4 weeks we had lessons, he spent the majority of the time crying on the sidelines and didn't want to put his face in the water. With a little one on one time with the instructor, he became more comfortable in the water to practice his strokes and kicks. During one lesson, he was jumping up and down on the stairs and jumped into a deeper part of the pool where he couldn't touch the ground. Since the teacher was with another student, I basically had to jump in the pool to rescue him. We only did swim lessons for 4 weeks as he was starting Soccer in September.
