Infant Swimming Resource
I came across this technique that teaches babies and toddlers a way to save themselves from drowning if they fall into a pool. The video is scary but also amazing. If I had a kid I'd want them to know how to do this. Can you imagine how much safer they would be?

(I made this a link because the footage has children in it.)
Have you heard of this technique? Would you want your kids to know it? What do you think of it and how effective do you believe it to be?

Whether we write or speak or do but look
We are ever unapparent. What we are
Cannot be transfused into word or book.
Our soul from us is infinitely far.
However much we give our thoughts the will
To be our soul and gesture it abroad,
Our hearts are incommunicable still.
In what we show ourselves we are ignored.
The abyss from soul to soul cannot be bridged
By any skill of thought or trick of seeming.
Unto our very selves we are abridged
When we would utter to our thought our being.
We are our dreams of ourselves, souls by gleams,
And each to each other dreams of others' dreams.
Fernando Pessoa, 1918
