Classes in water at the age of 1 month
Lower your baby gently into the water, the baby was not afraid of water. Start with heels. Children are very sensitive to changes in "physical data" of the world - they just have to get comfortable in the water.
Remarkably, if the first few days you will be able to bathe together. The presence of mother at once removes all the possible negative emotions. If you're in the bathroom together, put the baby so that he leaned back and head on your chest and shoulder and left hand keep it under the belly. Right at this point you can pour little water on the child and to show him the toy.
By the way, you can swim "together" with the pope. This is even more interesting - great slides for the little ones can be obtained from the father's knees, and long legs! If you stand "behind", then put the baby on his tummy, keeping under the chin and chest, or just under the chin, and rolling on the whole tub, rocking up and down, turn slightly from side to side.
Surely the baby like a start down from the side of the tub. To do this, turn the baby at the edge so that it rested against the wall of the bent legs. The child should push yourself and a little swim in the water. Repeat the steps if you bring it to the opposite edge. If the kid did not understand what you want from him, then take a few springy movements that mimic the tremors from the side.
Another fun and useful exercise for those who are just beginning to master the body of water - walking along the bottom of the tub. Keep the baby under the arms, slightly bending forward, stimulating reflex stepping movements, the infant could move freely. After a child "like" - it is desirable to take a swim on the back (if your child prefers not to swim only in the stomach).
By the way, backstroke, well developed vestibular system and balance when a little kid swinging on your hands from side to side. Such a "dusting" is an excellent prevention of
future "traffic" problems.
