Its better in the water!

Water Safety Day in Phoenix March 29th, 2011

Kidtastics is proud to announce that we will be participating in Water Safety Day on March 29th! 

At Water Safety Day, more than 1100 first graders will learn critical drowning prevention lessons as part of a seven week educational process. Activities include a swimming pool show, fire truck tour, music show, and a Build-A-Reminder craft activity. The event is organized by Water Watchers at Phoenix Children's Hospital and has grown in reputation and community support to become well known throughout the United States.

This year, they have something special to consider: reducing the drowning rate in our community IS possible. It happened last year, when the number of child drownings in Maricopa County was cut to less than half the previous year's total. Kidtastics is very excited to be apart of this event and to raise awareness to Arizona families and children!

Kidtastics is doing their part to prevent drownings by providing swimming lessons to children. To find out more about our swim lessons, please visit us at our website.

Hello Laurie!

Just so you know, the Josh the Otter Water Safety & Awareness Project has sent 1150 activity sheets to stuff in the bags for the event! We are working with Tiffaney Isaacson to help us get involved in the event. We are trying to get the Josh the Otter mascot but we are in need of volunteers to wearing it and help pass out free stickers, etc. Let me know if you would know anyone willing to wear a great mascot! All the best, Laura Thomas
