Ben and Sam both started swim lessons at the Y on Wednesday. It's going well so far, they both seem to like it. The picture of Ben and the other 4 boys with their arms up like chickens is from the "monkee, airplane, soldier" arm routine to help them learn the arm movements. If any of you are familiar with the 'Froggy learns to swim' book, Froggy learns to swim by doing the "chicken, airplane, soldier" routine. Little did we know, this is apparently a well known teaching technique among preschool swim teachers. It seems to be effective, but we had trouble holding a straight face while watching!
