Staying Safe at Pool Parties

Yes, pool parties are amazing fun for children. We all have fond memories of splashing and playing in the water under the hot summer sun. But in just a few seconds, the fun can suddenly become a very scary situation. It only takes an instant for a child to be pulled underwater and then only moments for drowning to occur.

Drowning is fast and silent. And at busy swimming pools during the hot summer months, it’s easy for a child to go unnoticed, even by lifeguards and watchful parents. That’s why constant supervision and vigilance is paramount. Don’t rely on the lifeguard or other parents to watch your children. Nobody can watch all the swimmers all the time. If your kids are in the water your eyes need to be on the water.

Dangers of Puddle Jumpers and Floaties

Another thing you should never rely on are puddle jumpers or floaties. Not only do they not protect children, they can actually be even more dangerous.
