Is Your Child Water-Ready for Summer Fun?

Is Your Child Water-Ready for Summer Fun?

From summer camps to splash pads, beach days to water park adventures—your child is likely to be near water more than ever this season. But here’s the question many parents forget to ask:

Is My Child Truly Confident And Prepared In The Water?

Even if your child “knows how to swim,” that doesn’t always mean they’re ready to handle real-world water situations. 

  • Can they float if they get tired? 
  • Do they know how to recover after jumping in and getting disoriented? 
  • Can they stay calm if they can’t touch the bottom?

That’s where survival skills matter most. At British Swim School of Northwest Orlando, our lessons go beyond strokes—we teach children how to react and recover when it counts. And our Survival Weeks, are a core part of that.

During this themed week, students practice real-life safety scenarios—like entering the water fully clothed and learning how to float, roll, and return to safety. It’s one of the most impactful parts of our curriculum and a favorite among both parents and instructors. Register today! 

And we don’t stop at the pool. We're proud to offer free, age-appropriate water safety presentations for local daycares, preschools, and summer camps. These sessions include fun demonstrations and memorable lessons that empower children to stay safe near pools, lakes, and beaches.

If your school or summer program would like to host one of these interactive presentations, we’d love to visit! Contact us to schedule a presentation. 

Because water safety isn’t just about swimming—It’s about being ready when it matters most.
