This month, Michael Phelps Foundation, Michael Phelps Swim School and KidsHealth are teaming up to keep kids safe. Here are my top swim safety tips:
1. Get lessons if you don’t know how to swim.
2. Remember the buddy system. Never swim alone. Always swim with other people.
3. At the beach or pool, only swim if the lifeguard is on duty.
4. Look before you leap: Make sure the water is deep enough, especially for diving and make sure you don’t jump on top of someone!
