Learning how to swim teaches confidence, grit, and most importantly, life-saving skills. Swim lessons in Atlanta start as for babies to learn water safety at a young age. Depending on schedule, budget, and accessibility, there are a variety of Atlanta swimming lessons parents can choose from: individual or group lessons; public locations or at-home pools; daily or monthly swim class schedules. For the younger set, many of these swimming classes can introduce your child to the water when he or she is less than a year old; but be advised, children who are not potty-trained will almost always be required to wear swim diapers.

We've rounded up a few of our favorite swim lessons in Atlanta, both intown and beyond the perimeter, that offer a well-rounded aquatic curriculum—fun and informative! 

Do your kids love helping out in the kitchen? Sign them up for one of these fun and delicious Orlando cooking classes! Cooking and baking are great activities for kids —including kids in meal preparation can help boost their confidence, improve math and reading skills, and encourage creativity. Even picky eaters can develop a more adventurous palate since they are more likely to eat foods they have prepared. We have rounded up several businesses around Central Florida offering baking and cooking classes for kids of all ages, from toddler to teen.

Cooking classes are a fun way for kids to explore and develop their culinary talents while also learning about where food comes from and developing healthy eating habits. The abundance of local farms in Westchester and the Hudson Valley makes it a great place for young chefs to learn and cultivate their skills. Whether your child has an interest in cooking as a profession or just likes to have fun in the kitchen and make their own snacks, there is something for everyone. 

We have rounded up several businesses in the area that offer kids cooking classes, many of which focus on using farm-to-table, locally sourced ingredients. Some have their own teaching gardens where kids can learn to grow, harvest, and cook with fresh ingredients, and one is held on a working organic farm.

You can find more cooking classes for kids–and even book a class online–in our directory of classes and listings. And be sure to check our Westchester Classes for Kids Guide for more kids’ activities and classes for kids of all ages and interests.
