As a parent, you’re always doing things for your kids. In fact, most of your day’s activities are for their benefit. Wouldn’t it be nice to have something focused on benefitting you for a change?
If your kids are swimming at Little Otter, this is happening for you!
Connections
You and Little Otter have a common bond – your child. We are all focused on doing things that will benefit your child: learning to swim. That common bond is all that the basis for a relationship needs for form.
You and other parents have a common bond – you are each bringing your children to learn to swim.
It’s easy to start chatting with another parent while watching your kids during swimming lessons. Before you know it a friendship emerges!
If your children are in the same swim class, it’s an extra bonus.
Your children are making new friends their fellow swimming students and you are forming friendships with their new friends’ parents.
You have so many things to talk about while your kids are in the pool:
- The amazing instructors you children are learning from
- The great pool that Little Otter provides
- The fun things that instructors use to help children learn
- The great attention your kids get because of the small size of the classes
- The really cool features – like swim suit dryers – that Little Otter has
- How much you kids are learning – and loving – swimming lessons
And then your friendship will be blossoming and you’ll be talking about what school your kids go to, what fun things you have planned for the weekend and – of course – your pets! You may learn that you live on the same street, attend the same church and shop at the same grocery store!
Swimming lessons mean instant connections. And new connections with people you have a common bond with are fantastic for you and your kids!
Social time
As your connections are made friendships are likely to blossom. Before you know it, you’ll be talking about what school your kids go to, what fun things you have planned for the weekend and – of course – your pets! You may learn that you live on the same street, attend the same church and shop at the same grocery store!
Swimming lesson time can become social time for you! This is great because your kids aren’t around and you and other parents can actually have adult conversations about adult topics. The news, movies, books, politics and the like.
Your chats may turn into sharing sessions about parenting and topics like kids who are swimming with tubes in their ears and food allergies!
Instant playdates
When your friendships have blossomed over a few weeks of classes, you may feel comfortable making plans outside of the swim school. Play dates are the most popular first activity that engages you and your child with your new friends. The kids can play and you can enjoy the company of other adults. With so much in common already, you’re sure to strike up genuine interests that will help you to become comfortable with developing relationships with your new friends.
Enrolling your kids in swimming lessons a Little Otter Swim School almost ensures that you’ll all be making new friends.
