Nathan just wrapped up his first swim lesson session. We had a blast. His lessons were at the school district's pool, and because they just started offering Saturday classes, Nathan was the only kid in the class and ended up with essentially private lessons for the price of a group lesson.
Nathan learned important skills like how to float on his back and stomach and how blow bubbles. He practiced using a life jacket and almost mastered jumping in the pool. He got really good at throwing the water Frisbees and chasing after them. At the end of each class he got to go down the big water slide with both dad and his teacher. Mostly Nathan and dad had lots of fun while Nathan got more comfortable in the water.
Enjoy just a few pictures from the lessons. We start another session next week.

Nathan got pretty good at floating around the pool. |

Floating on his back was a bit nerve wracking for Nathan. But he was brave and kept giving it a try. |

Nathan loved going down the big slide. |

Nathan loved swim lessons so much he would shut himself in the locker after we were done. |
