Preschool Aquatics Level 1: Introduces basic aquatic skill, which children continue to build on as they progress through Levels 2 and 3 of Preschool Aquatics and then Learn to Swim. Children start developing positive attitudes and safe practices around the water. Many skills are performed with assistance from the instructor.

Preschool Aquatics Level 2: Further development of basic aquatic skills continues. Children begin to perform skills at a slightly more advanced level by practicing skills for a longer period of time or longer distances. This also marks the beginning of independent skills.

Preschool Aquatics Level 3: Additional guided practices help increase child's proficiency in performing previously learned skills by increasing repetitions, distances, times or levels of refinement. Skills are performed independently. At conclusion of Preschool Aquatics Level 3, most children are ready for Learn to Swim Level 2.
