Establishing a consistent physical routine before entering the water isn’t just about structure—it’s about safety. ✨
In this video, we show how a simple sequence (clap hands, touch feet, ask permission) gives children an extra 10–15 seconds to process, allowing caregivers time to locate, connect, and prevent risky situations.
This routine is meaningful for children of all abilities and can be practiced before pool time, bath time, or shower time. Teaching swimmers to ask permission, follow a sequence, and build awareness creates a safer and more supportive environment around water.
💡 What you’ll learn:
Why a physical routine is crucial before swimming
How this practice gives caregivers time to react
Simple steps to teach kids independence + safety
How to apply it beyond the pool (bath + shower time!)
👉 Try this with your child and let us know in the comments how it worked for you!
