About this Item

Paperback. "It's fun to blow bubbles!" "I make big giant bubbles" "My daddy blows big and little bubbles" "I blow medium bubbles" "I can blow bubbles with my mouth" - all direct quotes from 3-4 yr olds about bubbles. For very young children, blowing bubbles is mostly a fun novelty. They really don't connect 'blowing bubbles' with breathing. In actuality though, bubbles are EXACTLY breathing and its the most important skill to introduce to a beginner swimmer. The earlier they learn to breathe out in the water, the safer and more confident they'll be when they get older. 'See Me Bubble' introduces the concept of bubbles to children in a fun and playful way while at the same time, explaining exactly what bubbles really are. The book also includes helpful tips for parents as well as crucial water safety and drowning prevention information. With brightly illustrated, colorful pages, simple text and silly concepts like 'how would a cat bubble?', children can be encouraged to practice in the bath and the pool, becoming increasingly comfortable with the act of 'bubbling'. While it may seem rudimentary, it sets every child up for swimming success later on as they are able to swim confidently without tiring or becoming frustrated. The best part is that, much like the quotes from the young children above, for little ones, it is simply F-U-N!! That more than anything ensures that children will continue to practice until it becomes second nature! This item is printed on demand.
