Water Safety for ASD Kids

Teaching children on the autistic spectrum to swim is today's topic.

Today I would like to take a detour from our discussion of inside fun ideas for the summer. A recent news article told of the drowning deaths of four siblings. Although the children were not special needs kids, they were caught in a water situation that was beyond their skills. Sadly the undertow of the water was beyond any swimmer's skills. The untimely death of these children brings to mind water safety and teaching our children to swim.

I hope that you will read today's article, Can Autistic Kids Learn to Swim?. . . L.
