Swim Lessons

 Ben started swim lessons today at the Y.  Parents are allowed to stay during lessons at the Y, so I took a few pics.  Ben is waiting for his first turn in the water with the instructor.  There are six instructors and each instructor works with four or five children.  They seem to be grouped by age.  There are small kids like Ben all the way up to some that look like 5th or 6th graders.   

 Today they worked on blowing bubbles through their noses.

To complete the first "station" and get a sticker on his certificate, he has to put his head completely under water and blow bubbles through his nose 10 times in a row.  He was close, but didn't quite accomplish it today.  Only the little girl in his group did.
