1. Practice at home:

Children can be taught to practice swimming in the bathtub. You can splash water on the child's face when he is taking a bath in the bathtub. Encourage holding your breath and putting your face into the water. Take confidence, you know, doing it in the pool is not much different from doing it in the bathtub.

2. Encourage no pressure:

Pushing children too far and too fast in the swimming pool may increase fear. Stand in the right place, watch other children play as much as possible, and gently remind them that you can also feel this kind of fun by learning to swim.

3. lead by example:

Parents can show their children the process of swimming and tell them that swimming is very interesting. I feel very comfortable to see that I like swimming in the water. And assure the children that they have been learning to swim this way for some time, and they should be able to do it.

Swimming is a skill that people float upward under the buoyancy of water and make their bodies move regularly in the water by virtue of buoyancy. Common swimming postures are generally divided into crawl, breaststroke, butterfly and backstroke. Crawling is the fastest, breaststroke is beautiful, butterfly is the most explosive and backstroke is the least labor-saving.

4. Kick the water alternately on the shore first.

First of all, before entering the water, let the children sit by the pool, immerse their calves in the water to adjust the water temperature, and kick the water alternately 1 to 3 minutes. At this time, parents can sing children's songs with their children to kill time playing football.

Run around the pool in the water

Then choose a swimming pool with suitable water depth, let the children squat slightly and run around the swimming pool for 2 to 3 laps in the water. Be careful that your hands must swing with your legs underwater. At this time, parents can accompany their children and walk around the pool together to increase parent-child feelings.

6. Reduce children's fear of getting into the water

You can dive into the water with your children and practice blowing bubbles. According to the child's breath-holding ability, you can reduce the child's fear of entering the water for a few seconds, and then you can start doing breath-holding exercises. Parents can throw waterproof toys into the swimming pool, let their children find toys in the water, or guess the way of boxing in the water. The winner can surface for air first, and gradually let the children reduce their fear of holding their breath.
