Liam and Kiera had their first "real" swimming lesson today. Our instructor showed us and Leila and Eli's parents a number of things we can do with the kids, including blowing on their eyes and dunking them in the water, holding their thighs while they do chest and back float, and putting floating toys in the water that they reach for (an early crawl). All 4 kids loved it and stayed in the water almost an hour. Maybe too long, since Liam threw up at the end, but all in all it was a great time.
