A short underwater swim from the coach to a parent.
After getting in or going under, turning around and heading straight for the wall.

About StarfishesFun fact
The blue whale is the largest animal known to have lived on Earth, and its heart pumps about 60 gallons of blood with each beat. Our Blue Whales fit in the lesson pool a little more easily.
Bring a swimsuit, a swim diaper if needed, and a towel. The first class shows how close your toddler is to swimming on their own.
