SWIMMING!

Swimming

We'd already taken Mini Mint swimming a few times and he LOVED it, but we thought we'd take a leaf out of Lisa's book (one of my online friends) and enrole him in some classes at Waterbabies. He was literally the star of the show, with the other mums asking why we'd bothered paying the exorbitant fees when he was so obviously a natural (/preen). The idea is though that we can teach him to swim as soon as possible - as Tilly Town is surrounded by water in the form of the River Mersey, various canals, ponds, reservoirs etc - I've never been able to swim, and I missed out on so many days out when younger, and don't want that for Mini Mint. Plus, it's an excellent way for him to meet other little 'uns.
