 Insightful book speaks volumes July 30, 2008

Learn to Swim is an amazing resource for nurturing parents who love spending family time with their children. The authors, Rob and Kathy McKay, are world renowned for their gentle teaching methods, curriculum and caring philosophy. Learn to Swim not only shows you how to teach your infant and toddler how to swim, but also how to skillfully and gently guide your child through subtle ages and stages. If you are looking for aggressive survival back float, this is not the book for you. If you are going to ignore your child's feelings or force skills on your child before they are ready, this is not the book for you.This book is a perfect choice for parents who wish to honor their child, engage them in play and share with them as a family the joys of learning to swim, and enjoying the water for a lifetime. We love this book, it's practical, step by step guidance and positive message. Read between the lines... this book speaks volumes not only about swimming but about parenting, mutual respect and eventually gaining safety skills in a appropriate, sane and sensible manner.

We were very excited to get this book after reading all the reviews, but we were insulted reading it. My daughter is 9 months old, we've been taking her in our pool for a couple of months now and she is way beyond this book. I was hoping it would teach her a technique for survival in case she ever fell in accidently, like the "Infant Swim Resource" does, but it doesn't even come close. We absolutely got nothing from this book. We already know all the basic stuff, it's almost common sense, what a joke this book is.

We got this book and have found it to be very easy to understand, there are a lot of detail on every chapter which should guide you to teach how to swim from a baby (6 months) to a toddler.
I recomend this book to everybody who wants to teach a child to swim

Learn to Swim: Step-by-Step Water Confidence and Safety Skills for Babies and Young Children is a beautiful book about teaching kids to swim. It has great pictures, step by step instructions, and games and techniques for teaching your children how to swim. I especially liked the fact that it very clearly stated what children can learn at each stage. So Caleb is now old enough to be learning how to hold his breath. (He's 11 months old.) They not only said he can learn how to hold his breath, but explained how to teach him and what to watch for to see if he's comfortable with it or we need to take some more time. I now have a very clear guide of what I can work on with him and what I might want to wait a bit on.

This is a great resource if you are a new parent, pregnant, or are a child swim instructor. It gives you a lesson by lesson outline. Very useful!
