Five Children's Centre: Water Rhymes
Water Rhymes is a weekly course designed to help you discover the joys and benefits of introducing your baby to water in a fun, yet structured way and learn key water confidence skills, using word association, games and exercises.
Where babies are concerned it is important to remember that they have no inherent fear of the water - after all they were surrounded by it for several months! Not only that, they also have a natural and instinctual ability to hold their breath when submerged. This course won't make your baby a swimmer but aims to build upon this ability by teaching babies not to panic if they should fall into water.
Most people agree that getting your baby used to water and starting baby swimming early on is one of the best starts you can give your baby. Whilst there are varying opinions about exactly when to start, babies are welcome at our Water Rhymes course from as early as a few months old.
By the end of this course your baby should have adapted to their surroundings and understand key word associations. Many of the parents that have attended previous classes have gone on to join structured swimming lessons for themselves and their babies.
Swimming with your baby builds confidence, trust and communication skills. Your baby will experience the positive health benefits of swimming such as improved stamina and breathing.
