AWAKEN NEW POSSIBILITIES BE ONE OF TONI’S KIDS AT CAMP WATCHAUG Toni’s Kids is an integration initiative designed to provide support for children with emotional and developmental challenges so that they can participate with typically developing peers in Y programs and activities. Toni’s Kids receive the benefit of modifications to camp activities, greater support by trained counselors and a smaller ratio of campers to staff members. Toni’s Kids participate in all regular activities and learn the YMCA core values of caring, honest, respect and responsibility with fellow campers. The Toni’s Kids Initiative enhances mutual respect among individuals of all abilities and helps every camper establish positive relationships and build lifelong social skills.

Contact Danita Ballantyne, Camp Director, to coordinate specific services to fully support your child’s camp experience at: 401-364-6535 [email protected]

Financial Assistance Available oceancommunityymca.org

The Toni’s Kids Initiative was inspired by the memory of Antoinette Liguori who devoted much of her life to fostering the well-being of children. It is in this spirit that Toni’s family and friends honor her memory by

establishing this important program at the Ocean Community YMCA .

NEW SWIM LESSON LEVEL GUIDE

The new YMCA Swim Lessons program uses a skill-based approach designed to meet the needs of local Ys and the people they serve.

PARENT/CHILD PARENT CHILD I/II (Ages 6 Months-3 Years)

The Parent/Child Swim Lesson Program provides children with the opportunity to become adjusted to the aquatic environment. For each class there must be a parent or trusted adult in the pool with the child. This level uses the process of repetition of skills, songs and games, and is designed to make your child’s first water experience safe and fun. Swim diapers are to be used for all children who are not potty-trained, we also recommend using plastic diapers over the swim diapers.

GOLDFISH (Ages 2-3)

The Goldfish swim lesson program will provide some of our youngest swimmers with the opportunity to transition from parent/child swim lessons to our progressive group lessons. Goldfish classes will be limited to a 1 instructor for every 4 swimmer ratio. Classes will be based around play and helping build each child’s confidence. Parents may get in the water to help transition.

PRESCHOOL SWIM LESSONS

The preschool swim lesson program provides children with an opportunity to learn skills at his/her own pace. Children are not forced to do any skill, but encouraged to try when they are ready. All classes are taught with a variety of instructional flotation devices. Our ratios are 5:1 for these levels.

PIKE (Ages 3-5)

This is a beginner level class for non swimmers. Flotation devices are used at this level.
