Red Cross: Water Safety Tips
Since children have the highest death rate due to drowning, water safety has become a growing concern especially for parents. To avoid water-related accidents and ensure safety, American Red Cross officials say the best thing anyone can do is learn to swim. In addition to swim lessons, parents should take into account that without year round practice their child's skill level is not the same as it was at the end of last season. The American Red Cross has been the leader in swimming and lifeguarding since 1914. Now the winning tradition continues with an exciting new collection of courses designed to make learning easier and to help you benefit from the latest research on instructional techniques. Designed to help increase safety wherever water sports are enjoyed, the American Red Cross Water Safety Today program teaches easy-to-remember safety tips
