Hey kids and welcome back!
Today, we'll be learning all about getting comfortable in the water.
Hi Johnny! Are you excited to go swimming?
So Johnny, just remember, my name's Bailey, and I'm really excited to be swimming with you today!
Before we go in the water, let's make sure we know where it's safe
When you point where the deep end is...do you know where the deep end is? That's right! That is where the deep end is!
Can we go in the deep end by ourselves? No, right! This is not safe
Where are the stairs? You see the stairs? Yeah, that's the stairs! That's where we're going to hang out a lot!
And what about...do you know where the lifeguard sits? Yeah! That's the lifeguard chair!
If you see that orange ring, that's called a ring, and throw that in if someone needs help
Ok, are you ready to go in the water? I'm ready too
First let's sing a song in the water to get comfortable splashing around!
Ok ready? Here's how it goes! Head, shoulders, knees and toes, knees and toes, knees and toes
Head, shoulders, knees and toes, in the swimming pool!
You look like you're ready to learn this! So why don't we do it together? Do it nice and slow! Ready?
Get some water on your hands! Great! Ok!
Head, shoulders, knees and toes, knees and toes, knees and toes
Head, shoulders, knees and toes, in the swimming pool!
Awesome! Double high five this time! Very good!
Wonderful! Johnny good stuff on the song!
Cool I'm happy I'm a little wet, and what about you? Should we get more of our hair wet? I think we should too!
We can use the watering can to get each other even more wet, by pouring over our heads and all over our bodies so that we're completely comfortable in the water
Now that we're all wet, let's play some games!
Alright, are you ready? We're going to play a game! So, we're going to play "Does it sink or does it float?"
So I'm going to hold up the toy, and you're going to tell me if it sinks or floats. Alright, sink or float?
You think it sinks all the way to the bottom or it floats? Floats! Floats? Alright, why don't you try it out!
Yeah, you were right!
Ok, let's start playing! What should we pick? Hmm, that one looks good! Hmm, what's it going to do? It floats!
What about this one? Hmm, it's sinking! One more!
Oh, this is a big one! What do you think? It sinks!
Why don't we do a treasure hunt now? So I'm going to hide stuff on the stairs, and you're going to go find it.
You're going to close your eyes, I'm going to go hide them!
Don't open your eyes...Alright, let's start playing! Treasure hunts are a super fun way to play in the water!
Look at Johnny go!
Now let's start the next game!
So, we use noodles for kicking and floats and glides, and lots of fun stuff, so right now we're going to use our noodle to go on an adventure out to the pool!
So, I want you to come step on this step very carefully, very nice!
Alright, are you ready to go on our adventure? So you can hold the noodle like this, or up tight like that, what do you want?
You want to hold it like this? Ok ready to go on an adventure? 1, 2, 3...
and blastoff!
Good! Good job! Look at your kicking feet!
Here we go! and remember, it's very important that you have an adult stay with us when we go out into deeper water
So, I think we've learned a lot today about getting comfortable in the water, you should be really proud of yourself, you did a good job
Do you want to give me a big high five? Awesome job Johnny, I can't wait for the next lesson!
