How long will it take for my child to learn to swim? To be specific, every parent wants to know how long it’ll take for their children to acquire the necessary skills to save themselves from drowning. It is important to know that no one, not even Olympic swimmers, is drown-proof, so supervision by the water is still essential. The truth is, there is no answer as each child is different. The time taken for each child to learn how to swim depends on many factors, which will be discussed later in this post. Guidelines on duration a child takes […]

It’s time for the weekly swimming lesson, and “Joe” is playing up again. You have tried to prep him before the lesson, and he has agreed to listen and cooperate, but somehow when the time comes, he is resisting to pay attention again. He is bobbing underwater, splashing around, and playing with pool toys while the teacher is talking. On occasion, he may be seen distracting other kids. A few thoughts may probably enter your mind: I’m not bringing him to lessons anymore The teacher thinks I have no control The other parents are getting annoyed that my child is […]

Swimming is fun for the little ones! MoovSwim had a toddler swimming lesson with our 2015 girls, V, A and I, and it was another splashing good time for parents and tods! The girls enjoyed having fun in the water, and they are getting more comfortable in kicking in the water. The fun activities encourage the tods to move about in the water by kicking, and enjoy the swishing motion of swimming. Pouring water over their faces not only encourages our tods to be comfortable with eventual submersion! This activity also encourages toddlers to learn voluntary breath control, which is […]

Swimming is a great time for daddy and child bonding! MoovSwim conducted a toddler swimming lesson for little G and M last Saturday afternoon! The toddlers first began with an all-time favourite song “Wheels on the Bus” to warm up. Daddies and tods sang along to the song, and had a lot of fun splashing around and playing with the water together! Next, the toddlers practised their kicking by chasing after lots of colourful balls! This never fails to bring a smile to their faces, and it was a joy watching their faces light up at the sight of the […]

Baby swimming is lots of fun with toys and songs! MoovSwim had its toddler swimming lesson with Baby A and Baby I on a bright and sunny Tuesday morning! Our 2015 girls had been learning to swim together with MoovSwim for about a month, and they have made progress in terms of water confidence and familiarisation. The girls know the routine of the lesson very well, and they were all ready for the warm up exercise to get them started. Coach Yong brought out the balls, and the girls excitedly kicked towards them and put them into the loop! This […]

One of my friends asked, “Why do you pay so much money for your kids to swim?” Well I have a confession to make, I don’t pay for my kids swim. Personally, I couldn’t care less about the pool. So, if I am not paying for swimming what am I paying for? – I pay for those moments when my kids become so tired they want to quit but don’t. – I pay for those days when my kids come home from school and are “too tired” to go the pool but go anyway. – I pay for my kids […]

Swimming is an excellent way to start a wonderful Saturday! On Saturday morning, MoovSwim had a swimming lesson with S and C, and the children had a lot of fun splashing around and being in the water! Both S and C just begin their swimming lessons together. S is more comfortable in the water and thus attends the lesson on her own, while C’s daddy accompanies C in building his water confidence together. The main objectives of the lesson were to inculcate water safety and build water confidence. Learning to enter and exit the water in a safe manner is […]

Swimming is fun with daddy, mummy and toys! On Friday afternoon, MoovSwim had a toddler swimming lesson with Baby V! Baby V has been with MoovSwim since she was 6 months old, and she has grown so well and progressed so much! The moment she saw the toys, she was immediately drawn to them and couldn’t wait to get into the water. Baby V enjoys her swimming lessons and being in the water. She is confident in entering and exiting the water via the mat. She loves kicking and is able to do so without prompting. This shows that she […]

Swimming lessons are wonderful for sibling bonding! On Tuesday afternoon, we had a swimming lesson for the K kids. Since our last post, the K siblings have made progress! KZ is gaining in ability and her independent kicking has improved. She enjoys practising her kicking and is able to enter and exit the water safely. Well done! KD had just woken up from his nap and took time to warm up by engaging with MoovSwim’s pool toys. He practised picking up toys from the pool floor, and is confident in climbing up and exiting the mat. His kicking has improved […]

Swimming with mummy is a great way to enjoy a hot day! On Tuesday afternoon, MoovSwim had a private swimming lesson with J and her mummy! Since the last we wrote about our lesson with little J, she has made good progress! Now, she is able to lean forward to reach out for mummy’s shoulders while entering the water. This is an important water safety skill, as it can be dangerous for young children to slide off the pool edge with their bottoms. Learning to lean forward and head into the pool is also a prelude to diving into the […]
