5 year old self taught
My 5 year old daughter is very active and likes trying new things. My mom bought her a cheesy snorkel and mask from the dollar store. She loved it and couldn’t wait to try it! The community pool had goggles she loved wearing already, so she tried the snorkel. She’d sit on the steps and hold her nose with her snorkel on and test it out. Within 20 minutes she was successfully using the snorkel, holding her nose with the goggles on and swimming under the water perfectly… I don’t know how, but she did. She’d stay under for a while. I bought her a better snorkel kit from Amazon and she went in the pool today with her dad who also has a snorkel (I do not snorkel and I’ve always had a hard time with it!) She can go under the water with her snorkel and no water will get in… but just overall asking for advice if there is anything I need to be aware of with her. She seems like a pro already to be but she’s only 5!
