To Goggle or Not to Goggle

Goggle! Definitely. Your kids will want them for the camaraderie factor, but using goggles will actually improve how they swim. A good swimmer needs to see where he (or she) is going, and using goggles accomplishes that. They will also protect your child's eyes from harsh pool chemicals and are relatively inexpensive to buy. When choosing a pair, make certain that they fit your child's face well enough to create suction around the eye sockets. Foam-lined lenses will leak! Look for goggles with lens frames similar to the ones pictured above....and make certain they're stylish too;)
