We put them into the water up to their shoulders, counted down from 3 and then blew air in the eyes so that they would shut them. Then we quickly dunked them under. They both took it really well!

They're pretty pricey - esp since we've already BEEN in the Y pool! - but I'll never dunk them without someone telling me to! :)Emilyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11854891640925870685noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-626561704201352431.post-67755425533799293782012-02-02T07:34:54.725-05:002012-02-02T07:34:54.725-05:00@Shannon- Good to know!

I prefer salt water as well, which is why we did their "lessons" at the JCC.Ashleighhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03053195426495332803noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-626561704201352431.post-9476512838764442322012-02-01T21:21:17.012-05:002012-02-01T21:21:17.012-05:00Do you know if Holland Bloorview is salt water or ...Do you know if Holland Bloorview is salt water or chlorine? I love the place we take The Bean because it's salt water and it's nice a warm! The change rooms are a little lacking, but since it's only a three minute drive away we don't worry about showering. Bloorview isn't very far from us either though, maybe we should check it out...Allisonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15441044988830815964noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-626561704201352431.post-58363471856114131312012-02-01T17:27:40.787-05:002012-02-01T17:27:40.787-05:00I agree about swimming lessons being a joke.

We took him to the public swim instead. With Ian, I think we did one session of lessons to introduce him to the water and then we didn't do it again until now (he's 2.5). Even now, it's a bit of a joke, but he wanted to do it because Erik was. By the time Erik was 3.5, they were worth it because he actually learned something, and now (just turned 5) he's starting to swim on his own.Shannonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03518325345447825732noreply@blogger.com
