Swim Wales promotes the introduction of babies and young children to the aquatic environment. The introduction of babies and young children to the aquatic environment should be safe, positive, fun and progressive to promote a lifelong love of the water.


Bubbles

Bubbles provides a fully supported introduction to the aquatic environment for babies and young children with an accompanying adult, specifically aimed at children aged 0-3 years. 

There are 4 levels of progression in Bubbles, with aquatic skills progressively developing throughout each level. Responsible adults are taught how to support and aid the child through games, songs and themed fun activities.
