Avoiding Swimming Deaths in Young Children
It's been a Happy Fathers' Day, made so by my children. We are preparing to go visit my father (and for a swim in his pool). I did a quick email check before we head out. An email I received from the Kingsbury Club in Duxbury states,
"Drowning is the #1 cause of death in children under the age of 5 in the state of Massachusetts."Infant Swimming Resource is a comprehensive drown prevention swim program where a life saving technique and a swim skill are taught to children from age 6 months to 6 years.
Happy Fathers' Day but keep an extra eye on those kids when they're around water.
