Erin ohearn has that story tonight. Reporter the warm weather is here and that means pool time. Perhaps no one is more excited than young kids but remember swimming is dangerous.

Reporter simpson says regardless of how a child learns to swim its important to reassess skills on a regular basis especially after winter months. Parents cant assume that they are going to be at the skill level they were at when they get back in the pool the next summer without any kind of lesson imlike with any break in practice swim skills can be lost which can can give kids a false sense of security. The first few swims simpson recommends keeping children within arms length and make sure their breathing is under control. You want to make sure that their kicking is behind them and not under them. You never want your children to be in a vertical position. That is the position of drowning. So, really having your kids swimming horizontally is so key. Reporter parents need to remember their role especially at the beach where both the current and the crowds are an issue. Everyone assumes everybodys watching everybodys kids. You cannot assume that. What you want to do is assign a water watcher and every 15 minutes change out that adult. Reporter she encourages parents to keep a close eye on jumping into the pool. Tell your kids to jump out not vertically avoiding pencil jumps. Instead give them a safe target to hit that is far from the steps or any corner of the pool.
