Splish! Splash!

Water is all around us. What better way to cool off on a hot summer's day than to go for a swim with some buddies?

But before you take a dip in the pool or the ocean, there are a few things you need to know!

Introduction

Drip! Drop!

You should always have an adult's supervision whenever you are near water.

Parents and lifeguards are there to make sure that you stay safe while swimming in the water.

Supervised Safety

Bang! Boom!

It's always smart to check the weather forecast before heading out to the beach or the pool.

Certain weather conditions can be especially dangerous when playing in the water.

Got a bestie to swim with? Use the buddy system!

Swimming with a buddy is not just more fun than swimming by yourself! It is also safer to swim with a friend or two by your side.

Munch, munch.

Food is yummy and wonderful, but you should always wait at least twenty minutes to swim after eating a meal.

Without waiting, your stomach may cramp up and make it difficult to swim.
