Swimming rules are extremely important for children to follow:

It is necessary that everyone in the family learns to swim well. Children can learn to swim by being enrolled in age-appropriate water orientation and learn-to-swim courses.

NEVER leave a young child unattended near water.

Do NOT trust a child's life to another child.

Teach children to always ask permission to go near water, whether it's the ocean, a swimming pool, or a lake.

Make sure young children or inexperienced swimmers wear U.S. Coast Guard-approved life jackets in or around water (ocean and lake), but do not rely on life jackets alone.

Always remember to wear sun screen when swimming or participating in any activity outdoors.
