A pool promises endless fun. It is the center of most happening activities and parties. It adds that extra glamour to a residential apartment and guarantees much more than a simple mundane living experience. An apartment with a swimming pool ensures an activity area that keeps kids and adults engaged for sure. Most of the Protech group residential buildings come with a poolside event and party area that is thoroughly enjoyed by residents.

With the onset of summer and the upcoming Holi festival, we are pretty sure you’ll be definitely making plans to enjoy your poolside to the fullest. As the celsius hits the roof, kids would want to spend more of their time near the pool. Though the proximity to the pool can definitely provide the right dose of much-needed Vitamin D and vitamin fun, there are also some dangers associated with it. Below we have summed up some of the Pool safety tips for kids as well as for parents that one can follow for their next pool visit.

Supervision

Supervision is the key to Swimming pool safety. By supervision we mean:

  • Staying in visual contact constantly. Don’t just look at them once in a while.
  • Always stay at an arm’s distance from your toddler when they are in the pool.
  • Take your children with you if you are leaving the pool site, even for a moment.
  • Always make sure that an adult is supervising when toddlers or children are playing in or around the pool.

Swimming Lesson

Sending your child to a swimming lesson always reduces the chance of mishappening from water. If you have your own backyard swimming pool or have a pool in your apartment then giving swimming lessons to your child is a must.

Note: Giving swimming lessons can only reduce the chances of mishaps, supervision is still the key.

Wear Floaties

Give your toddlers floaties when they are in the swimming pool. Floaties are a good tool to rely on when your child is in the pool. It also gives the parents a little more independence when the kids are in the pool. 

But remember flotation devices should never serve as a substitute for active supervision. All children regardless of their swimming ability should be actively supervised when they are in or around the water at all times.

Use Sunscreen

Too much exposure to the sun might cause photosensitivity, skin rashes, and other skin-related issues. Sunscreen is an essential assortment for any summer activity, but especially for the swimming pool where you are prone to get overexposed to the sun. Without it, you could end up with a painful sunburn, which can lead to some other health and skin issues. So make sure you are using it.

Learn CPR and a few other water rescue techniques

Every time you visit a swimming pool with your kids, always make sure there is an adult who knows CPR and other water rescue techniques. 

If you have a backyard pool or have a pool in your apartment learning these techniques by yourself will be a good idea.
