Swim Lesson Achievements



Noah tends to swim on the diagonal. ;)

Rachel swimming her 25 meters. =)




She was soooo proud of herself when she finally had the courage to just jump!

Noah has loved going off the board for a long time. =)


Noah and Rachel have done an amazing job this summer learning how to swim - I mean really swim. Noah did swim lessons offered by parks & red in Little Rock when he was four, but he hasn't truly known how to swim until now. Rachel also has come a very, very long way this summer and just yesterday swam 25 meters all by herself. She also jumped off of the diving board for the first time ever (albeit with a noodle and after about 10 minutes of standing on the board debating whether or not she was ready) and then we couldn't get her to stop! Noah also loves jumping off the board. Noah can swim 25 meters and is now learning technique with the freestyle stroke. It is our hope that they continue to enjoy swimming and we can put them on a swim team next summer.
