Summer is officially here, and so is the need for water safety. Drowning is the leading cause of death for children ages 1–4 in the United States, with nearly 1,000 children drowning each year. Two-thirds of these tragedies happen between May and August, making drowning the biggest summertime risk for kids.
At Josh the Otter, we believe prevention starts with education. Our mascot and book have reached over half a million children worldwide, teaching simple, life-saving rules. This June, we’re sharing critical safety tips every parent and caregiver needs to know. Follow along all month long.

Summer on the water is one of the best things about this season. A few smart habits before you leave the dock keep a great day from turning into a scary one.
Life jackets fitted and on. Weather checked. Someone onshore who knows your route. The details are very important.
Our partners at the NDPA put together a boating safety checklist covering everything before you board, while you're on the water, and how to handle emergencies if they come up. 🌊
Save this post and take 5 minutes to review it before your next trip out. Your passengers will thank you:https://ndpa.org/clothestheywore/Boating-WaterSafetyChecklist-NDPA.pdf

Swim lessons don't stop at the pool's edge. Every skill your child works on is part of a carefully built progression designed to grow their confidence and safety in the water and you can keep that momentum going right at home.
Blowing bubbles in the bathtub. Practicing a flutter kick on the edge of the bed. Learning to hold a streamline on the living room floor. Small, consistent moments like these add up to huge breakthroughs in the water.
We've put together at-home practice activities for every level so you always know exactly how to support your swimmer between classes. 💧
