In April, Wyatt started weekly swim lessons. During the lessons I would go in with him and help him learn water safety. We sing songs and do little exercises to get the babies used to the water. Wyatt and I really enjoy these times together. I am so impressed with what he has learned already!
This last week he graduated from his Water Babies class to Goldfishies, which means he and two other little boys go in by themselves with their instructor. I was very nervous. I pictured a screaming tantrum but was shocked when he walked right in to Miss Misty and listened so intently to her instructions.
Wyatt waited his turn very patiently then he and Wade were distracted with their starfishies. I could not believe how well he did sitting on the step.
The only time he got upset was when he was learning to jump into the pool. That needs a bit more practice. He goes back for a double session this week and hopefully he will learn even more!
