Well, just like her big brother, Anna took swim lessons. She was able to take them later in July and in the evening. It was typically warmer for her lessons....in the pool and for us parents sitting in the sun. She really did a great job during swim lessons and I think she was a little old for the class. It was the beginner "Whales" class and it was mainly to get the kids used to water and used to other kids. She did have fun though and was excited to get to go swim with her teachers.
She learned how to kick, walk like an alligator, walk like a crab and float on her back. She is great with putting her face in the water and diving for the rings and pennies. Her favorite game was alligator tag when she got to use the swim noodles. We usually try to go swimming on Thursday evening for Splash Nights when both kids can use noodles.
She did pass and will continue to Level 1 next summer. She just loves going to the pool and always wants to go to the big pool. She can't touch there yet, but she loves to jump off the side. She has been watching the bigs kids on the diving board and even tries to do funny twists like them. She does a great job of kicking her feet and getting back to the surface of the water.
