Lifeguards Need Your Help Too!
Please take time to review these important water safety tips for
a fun, healthy, and safe summer.
Water Safety Tips for Parents:
• Discuss water safety and rules with your children before every
visit to the pool or beach
• Ensure your children have strong swimming skills by enrolling
them in swimming classes
• If you bring a child’s friend to the pool, assess their swimming
ability yourself, don’t just rely on what their parents tell you
• Don’t give shoulder rides, you may not be able to tell if your
child’s head is above water
• Don’t let your children play breath holding games
• Keep toys that sink to the bottom of the pool at home
• Watch your children at all times around any body of water
• Don’t get distracted by books or electronics, you are there to
have fun, so unplug!
• Remember to stay within an arm’s reach of your child at all
times, even if they’re wearing a life jacket
• Only use Coast Guard approved life jackets that are properly
fitted–Hidden Creek Pool has Coast Guard approved life
jackets for children (x-small-medium) that are free to use
while at the pool
Share These Water Safety Tips With Your
Children:
• Have an adult with you whenever you go swimming
• Make sure a lifeguard is watching the pool and the adult you
are with gives you permission before you go into the water
• Don’t rough house or play breath holding games; it’s
dangerous
• If you see someone in trouble yell “HELP!” over and over again
– don’t try to help someone in trouble yourself, or you could
be pulled under
• If you are tired, remember to take a break
