Today’s Brains in Toyland segment regards water safety for young children and the benefits swimming has on the developing child.

We have Lorene Janowski, a Life Guard/Water Safety Instructor and Advanced Clinician of Occupational Therapy in the pediatric rehabilitation program at the Hospital for Special Surgery in New York City.

Are those inflatable arm bands a hidden danger? When is the best time to introduce children to swimming? What is the overall impact on devvelopment? We'll look at these questions and more. 

We believe you’ll find it helpful.
