My oldest HATED water in his eyes. He took the same swimming class 3 times b/c they wouldn't let him pass b/c he won't put his head under. So when he was almost 5, FINALLY! He is playing wildly in the pool and showers are much, much less dramatic than it used to be now. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-learning-to-swim-help-with-your-los-bathtime#post-2167224 Tue, 05 May 2015 08:17:40 +0000 mrbee 2167224@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mamaof2: @Anagram: you guys are living the dream! Well at least, my dream - my kids used to cry and cry if water was dumped on their head and it got in their eyes! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-learning-to-swim-help-with-your-los-bathtime#post-2167154 Tue, 05 May 2015 07:31:49 +0000 Anagram 2167154@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>So far, my 22 month old has never minded water in her eyes and face. When we rinse her hair, I literally just dump a pitcher of water over her head. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-learning-to-swim-help-with-your-los-bathtime#post-2167138 Tue, 05 May 2015 07:05:08 +0000 Mamaof2 2167138@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I think we had the opposite thing happen - my kids never cared about getting water in their face when taking a bath and thus once we started swimming it was a easy transition </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-learning-to-swim-help-with-your-los-bathtime#post-2166983 Mon, 04 May 2015 21:16:56 +0000 mrbee 2166983@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Our son has been taking swimming lessons this semester, and bathtime has gotten so much easier! He's just a lot more comfortable with water in his eyes, which helps with rinsing shampoo out of his hair. What a relief! It used to be major crisis when water got in his eyes... now it's just another day in the bathtub. Phew!</p> <p>Did learning to swim help with your LO's bathtime? </p>
