Memorial Day Water Safety Tips : Ideas for Women Home and ...


Monday is Memorial Day and thousands of families are flocking to the lakes, beaches, and pools that will all be opening this weekend. Here are a few tips to help and your little ones stay safe this weekend around the water whether near the pool or at the beach.

Pool Safety Tips:

  • Actively supervise your children around water at all times, and have a phone nearby to call for help in an emergency.
  • Make sure your pool has four-sided fencing and a self-closing, self-latching gate to prevent a child from wandering into the pool area unsupervised. In addition, hot tubs should be covered and locked when not in use.
  • Install a door alarm, a window alarm or both to alert you if a child wanders into the pool area unsupervised.
  • Teach children to never go near or in water without an adult present.
  • Enroll your child in swimming lessons after age 4.

Open Water Safety (lakes and beaches):

  • Actively supervise children in and around open bodies of water, giving them your undivided attention.
  • Enroll your child in swimming lessons?? it is an important skill for both children and adults to know.
  • Make sure kids swim only in areas designated for swimming.
  • Teach children that swimming in open water is not the same as swimming in a pool: they need to be aware of uneven surfaces, river currents, ocean undertow and changing weather.
  • Teach children not to dive into oceans, lakes or rivers because you never know how deep the water is or what might be hidden under the surface of the water.

Learn infant and child CPR and keep a phone nearby in case of an emergency.
