Sean has been involved with a swim program called ISR (infant swim resource). It was featured on the Today Show this morning and his instructor, Colleen Haas emailed me and asked if the parents of all of her students could help get the word out of the AMAZING program. I'll start off with our story, living in Arizona everyone (well not everyone, but close enough) owns a pool. Drowning is the #1 cause of death for toddlers ages 1 to 5 and it's sad because it is sooo preventable. Sean loves the water and so we put him in the six week program to help him learn how to swim at the age of 2. It is mainly a survival course and if he falls into a pool fully clothed he will know how to survive. He knows how to float on his back and yell for help. You can check out video demonstration on their website at http://www.infantswim.com/ . Also you can check out http://www.todayshow.com/ and see Dr. Harvey Barnett, the man, who studied this idea that infants can float. We met him last year while we were in Tucson and I am so grateful to him for having a passion to save lives.
