Water Safety

When the weather turns warm, everyone wants to be in or around the water. Hanging out at the pool or the beach on a hot day is a great way to beat the heat. Between having fun and checking out the lifeguards, most people don’t think much about water safety — but they should. For people between the ages of 5 and 24, drowning is the second leading cause of accidental death. One of the most important things you could ever do for a child in terms of their safety is to teach them how to swim. The second most important thing you could do is learn how to swim yourself, if you don’t have this skill already. We can’t stress enough just how important swimming ability is. Of all the issues in child safety, no other issue is so easily controllable by parents and produces such a large benefit of protection in return; perhaps with the exception of wearing seatbelts or checking smoke alarms. If either you or your child is unable to swim, or hasn’t taken lessons, it’s time to learn. Just how important is this skill? Most water-related accidents can be avoided by knowing how to stay safe and following a few simple guidelines. Learning how to swim is essential if you plan on being on or near water. Many organizations provide swim instruction to people of all ages, check to see what classes are available in your area.
