Preparing Kids for a Safe Swimming Season

“As part of National Water Safety Month in May, Massachusetts YMCAs encourage parents to take an active role in their child’s safety.  The following are safety tips to practice when in and around the water:

• Only swim when and where there is a lifeguard on duty; never swim alone.
• Adults should constantly and actively watch their children.
• Inexperienced or non-swimmers should wear a Coast Guard-approved life jacket.
• Parents or guardians of young children should be within an arm’s reach.
• Children and adults should not engage in breath holding activities.”
