10 Benefits of Swimming for Kids

There are so many reasons why you should learn to swim but there are also 10 Benefits of Swimming for Kids that will impact their health & safety.  Children should always be supervised in and around water, even once they have learned to swim.  Benefits of Swimming for Kids

SwimWays is a leader in the swim industry that is helping children learn to swim at the same time promoting water safety.  We absolutely love the confidence the Paw Patrol Swim Trainer Life Jacket has provided our little in learning to swim.  This life jacket is available at Walmart and provides a built-in chest and arm flotation designed for great mobility in the water.  It’s super easy to get on and off with the back buckle but out of reach for the kids to remove their own vest, hands down BEST design! swimming for toddlers benefits of swimming lessons

 If there is one thing I can encourage parents to do for their child more than anything is to help your children have confidence around water!  Get your child in water,  around water and in swim lessons at the youngest age possible.  There are so many benefits to gain…think of it as part of your child’s early learning development and education.  Creating a love for the water and swimming for your child will nurture so much in their life to come.Benefits of Swimming for Kids 

With each new stroke kids gain and learn:

  1. Self Confidence
  2. Sense of Accomplishment
  3. Over all aids in good health – burning off energy (which in turns results in a good nights sleep!!)
  4. Social Benefits
  5. Fun
  6. Enjoyment
  7. Promotes an Active Lifestyle
  8. Improves mental health – as it is a relaxing activity and can improve an over all mood
  9. Helps the body develop and understand balance
  10. Cognitive benefits

    Great article! Swimming is a lifesaving skill and it inculcates strength and confidence in children, which they carry with them beyond the pools too.
