Summary of Teaching Infant and Preschool Aquatics (Austswim)


Get infants and toddlers off to a great aquatic start! Australia has long been recognized as one of the world leaders in swimming and aquatic education. Through a new series of books by AUSTSWIM, instructors around the world can now incorporate new and better ways to teach aquatics.

Teaching Infant and Preschool Aquatics provides important guidelines for introducing infants and toddlers to water safely and effectively. Aquatic education experts describe children's motor, cognitive, and emotional development during six stages, from newborn to preschool, and how the stages relate to aquatic activity. They also coach you on how to structure lessons and activities based on the stages of development.

With this easy-to-use manual, you will learn

- effective ways to familiarize children with water,
- important infant health and water safety considerations,
- the role of teachers and parents in early aquatic experiences, and
- how to encourage a child's natural curiosity and playfulness to develop important aquatic skills.

Teaching Infant and Preschool Aquatics gives you all the tools you need to provide infants and preschoolers with enjoyable aquatic experiences so they can learn at their own pace, gain confidence, and build valuable water skills to use for a lifetime.
