When my daughter was little, we used to go to the swimming pool every week. She loved it! She had several swimsuits, but her favourite was a pink two-piece with white polka dots. She would take it all the time! When we arrived in the changing rooms, I dressed her then I put her floaties [inflatable armbands] on her. She then went into the small pool to get her feet wet. Then together we swam in the big pool. What good memories!

Clever stuff happening!
