What age did you learn how to swim?
Posted by Shexter on 1/8/15 at 8:28 pm01
My oldest is six, and I just realized that he doesn't know how to swim.
What's a good age to start lessons? Did you take swimming lessons, or learn by trial and error?

I can't remember a time when I did't know how to swim.

I don't remember. I never took lessons. I recall being in an inner tube in the shallow end at age 3 and just gradually moving to non-floatie status to treading water and going to the deep end. I had a lot of opportunities to be in the pool though. We're probably going to do crawfish aquatics for our daughter this summer (she's 3).

5, just throw him in the water and he'll figure it out. Believe it or not swimming is pretty instinctual but if you start too late (8 or 9) it becomes a lot more difficult. I was a swim instructor back in high school

3 days after I was circumcised. 50 years later, still afraid of the water.

This. Dad was a lifeguard as a kid so he pretty much threw us in the water early
