LO is 17 months and on Day 3 of floaties. Spent his entire time pushing away my hands and floating / kicking independently for periods of 15-20 seconds. He can kick in the direction he wants, float on his back and belly, and tries to belly flop off the top step... ugh!

We haven't done swim lessons yet, we are thinking about doing them in the winter when he is 2.

What was your child's progression with swimming?
