Babies love water, that is no secret. Don’t let that feeling become foreign to them. Keep them feeling safe by having a regular swim. The local pool is as good a place as any. Purchase a floating mat or other device designed for babies and you can enjoy the experience together.

What you need:

• swimming pool
• floatation device for baby
• baby togs! And baby swim nappies 😉

Get baby ready for the water. Lay baby on mat, all set to sail!

Sing some nursery rhymes or play some pool games with baby to enjoy the time spent in the water.

Notes:

• Be mindful, it is not recommended to submerge a baby under 6 months of age.
