Preschool Lessons The Swim for Life™ Preschool Program gives children 3 to 5 years old a head start on learning to swim, teaching them the basics to be safe and confident little swimmers. Water Smart® education is part of every Preschool level.

pReschool 1 These preschoolers learn to get in and out of the water safely. They'll learn to move safely in shallow water and use a lifejacket to be comfortable with their floats and glides.

pReschool 2 These youngsters will explore the water learning to submerge and exhale underwater. Buoyant aids are used to help them discover rollovers, glides and flutter kicks.

pReschool 3 These preschoolers will master their floats, glides and short swims on their front and back (2-3 m). They’ll be able to pick up objects from waist deep water and use their lifejackets to jump and roll into the deep end.

pReschool 4 These capable preschoolers will strengthen their flutter kicks and try swimming front crawl. They’ll start to learn how to support themselves in deep water and in the end they’ll do solo jumps and side rolls into deep water. Their lifejacket will support them while they learn to tread water and swim to safety (5-10 m) in the deep end.

pReschool 5 These skilled and independent youngsters will master short swims doing front crawl (5-10 m) and back crawl (3-5 m). They are ready to take on a forward roll into deep water with their lifejacket on and to tread water without the extra support. Here they will get their first chance to try whip kick and fitness training.

Lessons for School-Age Children Swimmer levels make sure your child learns how to swim before they get in too deep. Each level challenges school aged children 5 years and older to develop safe entries, deep water support, underwater skills, and swimming strokes. Kids learn everlasting healthy habits by getting and staying fit.

swIMMeR 1 These beginning swimmers will work on safe entries, exits and moving through the water. When ready they’ll do floats, glides and kicking on their front and back without assistance. They'll even explore jumping into deep water and treading water with their lifejackets on.

swIMMeR 2 These children will be able to jump or side roll into deep water, tread water and swim (10-15 m) using either front crawl or back crawl. They'll try ‘vertical’ whip kick and begin to work on their endurance level by stepping into the world of fitness interval training.

swIMMeR 3 These swimmers will dive and do forward rolls into deep water. Watch them learn handstands and front somersaults underwater. They'll work on their front crawl, back crawl and whip kick over short distances and add some interval fitness training to their practice. By the end they’ll be able to meet the Swim to Survive™ standard: Roll into deep water, tread water (1 min.) and swim (50 m).

swIMMeR 4 These swimmers will swim further with their front crawl and back crawl. They'll be introduced to breaststroke arm drills, underwater swims and front crawl sprints. Interval training will add to their fitness level.

swIMMeR 5 These swimmers will try eggbeater kick, head up front crawl and shallow dives. And just for fun try ‘tuck’ jumps and underwater back somersaults. They'll easily go the distance with a strong front crawl, back crawl and breaststroke.

swIMMeR 6 These swimmers will master eggbeater and scissor kicks, front crawl, breaststroke and back crawl. With the interval training and sprint racing drills they'll be ready to make the 300 m endurance workout. And, just for fun, they’ll try stride jumps and compact jumps. Next step: on to the Canadian Swim Patrol program.

level 7: RooKIe pAtRol Canadian Swim Patrol: Rookie Patrol ractices develop fitness levels to meet a timed 100 m swim and 350 m workout. Water proficiency skills include: swims with clothes, ready position, foot first and head first surface dives. Demonstrating an ability to conduct a primary assessment and initiating EMS are included as first aid skills. Victim recognition and throwing assists are other key elements of the program.

level 8: RAngeR pAtRol Canadian Swim Patrol: Ranger Patrol enhances capability in the water, including stride entry, underwater forward and backward somersaults, lifesaving eggbeater kick and increased fitness levels to meet a 200 m timed swim. Rescue skills involve an increased skill level in ABC first aid basics, victim recognition and non-contact rescues.

level 9: stAR pAtRol Canadian Swim Patrol: Star Patrol demands good physical conditioning and lifesaving judgment. Participants develop lifesaving and first aid skills; further refine front crawl, back crawl and breaststroke over 100 m each; and complete 600 m workouts and 300 m timed swims.
