With the weather warming up, we know you're going to heading to the pools, lakes, or ocean this summer! We want you to be able to enjoy and have fun, but we have six water safety tips that will help you keep you and your child safe:
1️⃣ Make sure children know to always ask permission before going in or near the water.
2️⃣ Never swim alone without a Water Watcher.
3️⃣ Supervise your children whenever they’re in or near water.
4️⃣ Don’t engage in breath-holding activities.
5️⃣ Inexperienced or non-swimmers should wear a Coast Guard-approved life jacket.
6️⃣ Don’t jump in the water to save a friend who is struggling in deep water.
