Baby
Swimming Lessons at Little Splashes is more than just gaining water confidence
and knowledge of water safety. We incorporate activities that addresses
physical, cognitive, language, social, emotional development & temperament.
Our program is structured according to baby’s average milestone. Creating more
experiences would help in creating more neural connections within the brain,
this will help in simulate brain.
From birth
to age of 5, a child’s brain develops more than any other time in their life.
The brain doubles in size in their first year after birth. Brain connections
are built through their daily experiences. Infant aquatics creates another
experience other than their daily experiences and this will last for a
lifetime. The simulation and interaction they receive in their early years
makes all the differences.

2.Toddler Swimming Lessons
Toddler
Swimming Lessons at Little Splashes starts to introduce more movements in the
water. This helps create synapses involved in balancing. For example, we will
introduce them walking, running and jumping around and within the pool area.
They will
also begin to learn cause and effect together with the learnt associated words.
Toddlers would also understand spatial relationships and allow better hand-eye
coordination. Using songs and communication will help strengthens the synaptic
connection in the frontal lobes, the part that is responsible for memory.
Communicating will help not only aid in developing language skills, it also
builds auditory skills.
In toddler
age, they are able to move and control their movements better on land. Every
though she has can be executed into movement which strengthens the associated
neuronal connections.
At the age
of 2, they will learn more sophisticated thoughts, feelings and ideas that are
beyond their ability to communicate them to others. Through our program, we are
able to address and acknowledge their emotions when they are doing the
activities. Overtime, they will learn how to express themselves and communicate
with respective caregiver.
Toddler
Level 1

Angel Fish learn through an intermediate water movement-based program, where
through play and experience they develop on their psychomotor skills with the
discovery of self, problem-solving & emotional interaction.
Toddler
Level 2
For toddler
25 to 30 months old
Our Puffer
Fish learn through a routine circuit-based program, where through instructions
and direction they develop extensively on their psychomotor skills and water
independence, with problem-solving skills via interaction & self-awareness.
Toddler

For toddler
31 to 36 months old
Our
Advanced Turtles learn through an advanced circuit and safety swim program,

3.Kids Swimming Lessons
Kids Swimming Lessons are considered as one of the most important children enrichment activities to many parents as families often travel during their school holidays. Most of their destination is to nearby countries that are surrounded by water. Many a times, a boat or ferry ride is required to reach their designated resort. It is crucial that our students not only know water safety, but also to be identity surrounding dangers (for example, water current and beach safety) and boat safety. Being able to rescue or survive as an individual when accident happen are mandatory in Little Splashes Aquatics programme.
Many of us associate children swim classes with stroke development and water confidence. Here at Little Splashes, we are more than just a school for children to attend swimming lessons, only teaching strokes and water confidence.
As part of our progression, we do incorporate swim skills to real life experiences. Creating real scenarios and anticipate our students to react in a safe manner. We do conduct cohesion program that introduces snorkeling, Scuba diving and mermaid swim upon request.
Benefits of Swimming Lessons for Kids
A child’s brain develops most quickly from the age 3 – 5 years old. Being in the water together with our carefully crafted program aids in stimulating the brain in creating more neural connections. We encourage exploration and experimenting throughout the session. Basic instructions are given in a whole skill method, from there we respect and recognize the understanding and execution ability of the skill. LSA swim teacher will then give feedback and correct techniques or skills in detailed respectively.
With this technique, we work on their cognitive and language development. This enable the child to listen, understand, reflect and execute the skill or activity that is just told by our swim teacher.
Our program is planned progressively according to their learning ability. LSA swim teacher will constantly carefully assess the execution of the skill taught weekly. This will enable them to move from weekly performance to a learnt skill with constant encouragement and motivation and positive feedback. From here, we are addressing their motor, physical and emotional development.
Children Learn-To-Swim
For children 3 years old and above, they will attend the learn-to-swim classes independently by themselves without the company of parent or guardian. Our children learn-to-swim classes are designed to cater and segregate according to each child’s individual proficiency & pace, with the main goals of teaching recognized strokes and enforcing water safety and self-rescue skills.
