Swim accessories
Splash About Happy Nappy™ Swim Diapers
This is a washable and reusable swim diaper that holds it all in! It is significantly better than any other swim diaper we have experience with. This is the only item they need to be wearing during lessons!
Frogglez Children’s Goggles
DO NOT purchase these goggles until they have completed the ISR program as we do not allow them during ISR lessons. If your child were to fall into a body of water it would be highly unlikely that they will be wearing goggles. We allow goggles beginning in level 3 of our Guppy swim team after they have mastered freestyle and backstroke. These goggles are ideal for smaller, younger children. They are optimized for ages 3-5.
Prextex assorted dive toys
After children have mastered the ISR program which teaches them to hold their air and float on top of the water we begin working on comfort, fun and more advanced breath control. These toys allow kids to enjoy the water while maintaining a head down swimming position in the water.

Books
Swim, Baby, Swim!: Preparing for Your First Swim Lesson
Parents have asked for years to have a book they could read to their children before starting lessons. This book is a tool to show children what to expect on their first day of swim lessons. Lay aside any concerns with learning this life-saving skill.
Violet Finds Her Float
Violet is eager to jump in the pool for some summer fun, but first she needs to learn that swimming takes practice. Join her and her magical friends as they learn important lessons about water safety and fun.
Josh The Baby Otter
A tale promoting water safety for children. This is the story of a newly born otter named Josh and how he learns to float and swim with the help of some new friends. Josh's mother Clare explains why it is so important for children to stay away from water unless they are with an adult. Included in the book is a link for a free app which has an entertaining story narrative and a original song entitled "Learn to Float". Children love to listen while turning the pages over and over again. A valuable, fun and educational book for young children.
