• Don’t let them swim without adult supervision.
• Monitor the horseplay. No running on deck. No dunking each other or horsefights.
• Supervisor needs to constantly monitor the child in or near the water.
• Always designate a responsible person to supervise.
• Supervisor needs to remain in constant visual contact as well as allows kids to intervene if an emergency arises.
• Any kind of distractions, such as texting, reading, socializing, surfing or other task swill limit their capability to effectively supervise. Hence, constant vigilance should be maintained by the designated supervisor.

• Swimming classes must include water survival techniques such as treading water and survival floating.
• Educate them about water safety needs and potential water hazards.
