RULES FOR HAVING FUN IN THE WATER

  • Even good swimmers need buddies. Make sure your child knows never to swim alone.

  • A lifeguard (or another adult who knows about water rescue) needs to be watching children whenever they are in or near the water.

  • Make sure your child knows never to dive into water except when permitted by an adult who knows the depth of the water and who has checked for underwater obstructions.

  • Never let your child swim in canals or any fast-moving water.

  • Ocean swimming should happen only when a ifeguard is on duty.

  • Younger children should be closely supervised while in the water. Use "touch supervision," keeping no more than an arm's length away.
