Summary: sensational
Review: As the mother of seven children I can tell you that Gaylene Anderson is brilliant! She teaches in a way that is so positive, that it should make all parents feel confident to teach their child to swim. Gaylene demonstrates the kind of systematic teaching that is beneficial in really all parenting skills. Bravo to Ms. Anderson and here's to many more wonderful video's such as this one! Keep up the great work!

Summary: Well-produced DVD: Lessons presented clearly
Review: I am a mother of two active boys. This DVD is a life-saver. I would recommend it to anyone who is interested in water safety.
How many of us are sick of looking at huge bills for private swimming lessons that seem to leave our kids' minds as soon as they get in the water again? This way, we have the skills to teach them on our own, or to support what they are learning in their lessons.
I especially like the fact that there is a section on ocean safety.
Bravo, Ms. Anderson!

Summary: Excellent visuals and techniques - a great present!
Review: I am really impressed and glad I found this. The step by step approach, great examples of how to keep lessons fun, and really clear above and underwater video make this instructional DVD so helpful for parents. No matter what age or skill level, you'll see appropriate techniques to help gain confidence, progress, and enjoy the water. I'm giving a copy to my local library, so more kids can be strong, safe swimmers. I also think it would be a good present for new parents (much more useful and long lasting than other kid junk we receive).

Summary: If your kids are around water then Waterproof Kids them.
Review: I live in Hawaii and my son has been around water since he was 6 months old. He's now 2 1/2 years old and he has no fear of water. This has been very scary for me. On a couple of occasions while I was watching him he charged into the ocean as fast as he could run without a life jacket or floaties. He was up to his kneck before I could catch him. He can dog paddle and he knows how to hold his breath but he's still 2 1/2 years old. When I heard about Waterproof Kids I had to get it but I was worried about getting my son to sit through it. The first time I put it in he watched the whole thing with me from start to finish. We paused between the modules to practice on dry land some of what we had just watched. He loves the interactive part. He has since requested Waterproof Kids to watch on his own many times. When we are at the beach I've even seen him practicing some of the skills on his own. There is no substitute for an attentive parent when your child is around water but Waterproof Kids has given me a little extra peace of mind. I highly reccomend Waterproof Kids as must for kids who have been around water and kids who haven't.

Summary: Lifesaving Gift
Review: I purchased Waterproof Kids last spring. I am pleased with my purchase. I live near a lake. It's a popular place for kids of all ages to gather when the weather gets nice. One reads about a drowning every summer. Sadly, some of the drowning is among young adults who did not learn respect for the water.

Waterproof Kids is a great tool to aid parents in teaching their children that they could have fun in the water, and at the same time teach them to respect the water and its power. Coach Gaylene Anderson loves children, water, and teaching. She believes in her work, and it is reflected in her video. This is a great video to teach our children how to have fun and be safe in and around water. She demonstrates it in a clear organized step by step format divided into age appropriate skills from babies to adults. Gaylene's positive and enthusiastic approach is contagious. She emphasizes safety at all times. The "Before You Begin" and "As You Progress" summary at the beginning and end of each module is very helpful.

It is never too early to set the foundation. Waterproof Kids is a wonderful gift to give to family and friends that are expecting or who have just had a baby. It also makes a great tool for water instructors, and companion tool for parents whose children are enrolled in swim lessons.

Thank you for making Waterproof Kids available to the public. With a product like this on the market, I look forward to not hearing emergency vehicles pass my house on the way to the lake.

Summary: Great teaching tool!
Review: This DVD has helped our 4 year old gain a lot of confidence in the water; the video is well organized, easy to follow, and introduces age appropriate skills demonstrated by swimmers and non-swimmers alike. It is both parent/teacher and kid friendly such that even though it is an instructional video for parents, my child enjoys watching the kids her age performing the tasks in the video and is able to practice them once we are in the water together. This is a good investment for parents who want to equip their children with both fun and potentially lifesaving water skills.

Review: Waterproof Kids is a must-have for all parents! The
instruction is amazing with real life demonstrations
to show the techniques above and below water.
Simple techniques can literally alert parents when
children are in the water, a technique that may save
lives if they are not yet strong swimmers. The
instruction is age-specific, so it is great for parents

Summary: The Best Learn-to-Swim Instruction for Children
Review: Waterproof Kids is essential for all parents who want to give their children the gift of being safe and comfortable around water as well as helping them learn to swim. With a strong emphasis on safety Ms. Anderson shows us step-by-step everything we need to know from introducing infants to water to teaching teenagers advanced swimming techniques.

After loving the water as an infant, my almost 4 year old son when through a phase of resisting going in the water at all and he especially hated getting his face and head wet. After seeing Waterproof Kids my son took an interest in the wonderful video footage of Gaylene demonstrating various strokes and showing infants going completely underwater. Now it's his favorite DVD.

Since being introduced to Waterproof Kids and seeing other kids learning to swim, he now loves "getting dunked" and doesn't mind getting his face and head wet at all. In the last three weeks since he's been watching Waterproof Kids, he's made more progress in learning how to swim than all the rest of his life. It may be designed for patents to teach their children to swim, but the real benefit has been from our son watching it and becoming inspired and motivated.

I am sure that we will use the different modules of the DVD as we progress through from toddler, young children and teens. It's a good thing that DVD's don't wear out because it's going to get used in our house a lot!

Gaylene is bright, energetic, enthusiastic, knowledgeable and clearly loves what she does. Her positive energy is a delight. Give your kids and yourself a life-long gift of love for swimming. Get Waterproof Kids. You won't regret it!
