When can children learn to swim?

The sooner a child picks up swimming, the sooner it becomes comfortable in the water. And that's important when it comes to giving them the best options for learning how to swim.

A good swim lesson can already start at the age of 2, because children at this age is able to understand and do simple smaller exercises, and with the right support - and not least the right gear - they can quickly feel comfortable in the water.

In this regard the parens have a very special role, both when it comes to create joy and comfort in being in water. for instance, this can be achieved by being calm and relaxed in the water yourself, and by giving room for splashes and playing.

You should be careful not to let the kids lose motivation, by pushing too hard. When the child tries to swim by itself, it's best to support them by holding a hand under the chest. This gives the best buoyancy and mobility.

What gear helps the most with kids' swimming?

There are many different types of gear you can use, to make it easier and safer for kids to move around in water. There are some pros and cons to all of them. This goes with buoyancy aids as well as belts, which are all intended to keep the child above water, but that also reduces the mobility and sense of freedom in the water.

As such, it can also be an advantage to pick a swimming vest made for swimming, but which will still provide the necessary buoyancy. Or if you want to make it a bit more fun, why not get a sharkfin that turns the child into a small and "dangerous" shark.

No matter what you pick, or feel you need, it's important that it's comfortable for the child to wear. At the same time it also depends on how much (or little) patience the child has. For the kids who just want to go swimming as much as possible, it's best to pick the gear with the most amount of mobility. If the child needs to feel extra safe in the water, it's best to pick the gear that provides the most buoyancy.

Swimming and diving should be fun!

The most important thing in all types of learning is, that it should be fun and challenging. And there are many options when it comes to children's playtime in the water. It all depends of the different ages, because as soon as kids learn how to swim on their own, the next thing up on the list is diving.

One of the most common - but also one of the most fun - water activities, is to dive for something. It can be rings, sticks or something entirely different. In these cases it's important that kids have the right goggles. No matter if they are primarily used for swimming or diving. Children's eyes are more sensitive than adults', so it's extra important to protect them. Especially because kids can quickly get sucked into the game, and might not notice that their eyes has begun to sting.

Another "sure thing" in the water is obviously balls to throw around, or noodles to drift around on. All of this, and much more, is available on our site - and if you need extra inspiration, we recommend that you take a look around the different categories.
