The YMCA where the boys took swimming lessons this past winter and spring offers summer lessons in backyard pools and Harry's friend Connor has a pool that's big enough. (We got the boys a little pool that's great for cooling down in and being comfortable in the water, but not really for swimming.) There's a minimum of four students to qualify, but with Harry, Jeremy, Connor, and Rip, we had enough. Not surprisingly with four young boys who play together all the time, Megan had her hands full at the beginning of today's first lesson, but she managed just fine. I don't know if it was a conscious strategy on her part, but she got each boys undivided attention by removing their floatation bubbles and getting them to try to swim briefly, on-on-one with her, without them.
