Swim School Basics

From soccer to gymnastics and track, lots of sports help kids build skills and burn off energy. One sport, however, offers a unique boost to lifelong fitness. Unlike many childhood pastimes, swimming lessons build skills that can translate into a lifetime of safe, effective exercise long after the cleats, ballet slippers and track shoes are put away. Regular swimming builds core strength, breath control and stamina that can enhance performance in other sports, says Jenny and Chris McCuiston, parents and founders of Goldfish Swim School, a nationwide provider of swim lessons for children with locations in Cary, Raleigh and Charlotte, North Carolina. Here’s how to help kids make a splash, safely, whether they’re in the tot pool or the deep end.

She wanted more mature accents like silver wall sconces and velvet pillows, paired with punk rock elements like a graffiti-inspired bed frame and pink neon sign. Luckily her designer mom knew exactly how to tie it all together.
