Swim Lessons!

Last week, the girls took swim lessons at Ms. Melanie's house for 30 minutes each day, Monday through Friday. The first couple of days, they were a little hesitant to walk in but would always be happy when I picked them up after the lesson.
I was a little nervous to go with them on Friday for "show off" day, where they showed us everything they had learned that week. I was pleasantly surprised & the girls did GREAT!! All of the kids did wonderful and listened to Ms. Melanie and followed directions. All of the parents were very impressed with what our kids had learned in just 5 days!
Ready for "show off"' day!!





All of the kids sat on their ''diamonds" (diamond tiles in the pool) and listened carefully to the directions given by Ms. Melanie.

First, they did "submarines" out to Ms. Madeline (straight arms and kicked off from step)
Kaelyn:








Next was time for them to jump in, and then swim to the side of the pool.
Shae:












Now it's time for them to jump in and swim all the way across to the OTHER SIDE of the pool!












We are so proud of our little swimmers!! At the end, Ms. Melanie gave them all a popsicle and told them what a great job they did!! Way to go girls!! :)
