Infant Swimming Resource teaches young children how to survive on their own in water

Have you ever heard of ISR? No? Well, you should look into it if you have a young child or ever plan on having kids. ISR stands for Infant Swimming Resource and it’s basically a swimming school for infants and toddlers that has proven to be able to teach young children how to survive on their own if they accidentally fall into water. ISR teaches them how to swim and roll onto their backs if they find themselves in a wet situation where no adult is able to come immediately. [via]

Of course, this isn’t a substitute for actually observing a child when he/she is playing, but there’s no doubt that ISR can save a life if a near-fatal accident should happen. Remarkable video above!

    En España hay cursos de matronatación para bebes donde se les enseña a sobrevivir en una caida a la piscina . En el video del siguiente enlace aparece mi propia hija de dos años: https://www.facebook.com/#!/video/video.php?v=135747103145624&comments&set=t.100001310065092&type=1

    I have to young half brothers (ages 2 and 4) that are both trained in this. My step mom has showed me videos of them doing it and, just like that video posted, its quite a shock to see for the first time. Especially when it’s your little bro.
