Children work at their own pace with caring teachers who are specialists in children�s motor development. REMEMBER: The American Academy of Pediatrics recommends all children age 7 years and under must be within an arms length of an adult who is in the water with the children and focused on supervising the child.
For children 3-5 years of age.
