As a former lifeguard, I can't emphasize how important swim safety can be, especially when it comes to small children.
Unfortunately, many parents find out about lifesaving lessons after it's too late, so while it might seem crazy to toss your little ones into the water while they are still in diapers, there is no doubt that the benefits outweigh the risks.
When I first saw the following video, I have to admit that I was scared stiff. How could they teach such a tiny girl to jump in the pool like that?! Of course, the toddler was under close supervision, but it still made me nervous to watch her struggle.
However, after a couple of seconds, it was obvious why it was important to share this video. The little girl was taught how to flip onto her back in an emergency situation, a trick that could save her life someday.
If you know anyone with small children, please SHARE this video with them. Every parent should know about this lifesaving technique!
