Water Safety with Colin & Friends

How It Works
Water Safety with Colin & Friends is a comprehensive water safety program for kids. The goal? To teach children key rules that can help them make safer choices around all types of water. Our water safety activities cover rules for bathtubs, pools and open water (lakes, rivers, ponds, canals and beaches). Children will learn lessons such as waiting for an adult before going in or near water and wearing a life jacket.
All you need to do is help children follow the steps below to complete the program! These water safety activities are evidence-based and continue to be evaluated for efficacy. Every part of this program has been proven with statistical significance to increase children’s water safety knowledge. Knowledge that can prevent drowning.
