親子游泳．佑恩
It’s been a year since we started swimming here in Lalaso. It’s one of Jenson’s favorite classes to go to. Especially with all the extremely patient teachers and staff members, sometimes we even come twice a week. No kidding but that’s how much he loves it here. Just today we went to the park across Lalaso, he said himself that he wanted to go swimming without me even mentioning that we are around the area.
2021 September, Jenson started out loving diving, smiling under the water, incredibly relaxed while floating on his back and the most splashing the water. But somehow he began to have his own mindset and started his rebelling stage, he said no no to everything and would even be mad before entering the facility. But our favorite teacher Ivy encouraged me not to give up saying it’s just a stage and just to give him more time, during his regression Ivy kept pushing Jenson by bringing more fun and enthusiasm into our lesson. Today, Jenson could kick under water and even while floating on his back. He is now the fire hydrant in class, splashing everyone with water as soon as he gets into the pool. I am so grateful for the support and patience of the teachers despite my weakness in following their instructions. Nonetheless, their facility is also amazing, we never stopped coming here even in winter time. They have the warmest pool and the coziest changing area, what makes me want to stay longer inside than leaving the building.
We have achieved so much, by 19 Months Jenson could take a shower on his own with running water on his head, my favorite is the relationship and rapport we built together during each and every swimming lesson.
Lalaso is the best, a must visit facility if you’re raising your children in Taichung!
時間過得如此快，佑恩再兩個月就要2歲了。我們從去年九月佑恩大約十個月左右開始來到拉拉手上泳課，已經整整一年了。熱愛水的媽媽當然也必須有個熱愛游泳的兒子。所以從小就開始讓佑恩接近水的世界，果不其然我的寶貝一下子就很適應。但說真的帶著一個小嫩嬰潛水，而且還是第一胎無論如何都還是會緊張。我們就那麼幸運的遇到小愛老師，能夠讓我們母子倆能夠放鬆且愉悅的心情學習。親子游泳並不是只有教小朋友如何游泳，但其實媽媽自己也是學了不少和兒子互動的方式，更能夠深入了解自己孩子的個性和他們一起磨合，一起完成每一個任務。雖然不知道佑恩會不會記得這一切，但媽媽從第一天上課都深深記在心裡。
從2021 年九月佑恩開始，佑恩其實就很愛玩水，每一個項目都難不倒他。他熱愛潛水，很快的在水裡就能把眼睛睜開，仰漂的時候還能夠很放鬆的躺在我的肩膀上。但過了不久，佑恩開始有自己的主見時 學會了硬舌硬嘴。就是開始說 no no 的時期，一進場就開始哭，不跳水，不潛水，不仰漂。弄得我更加緊繃。但還好有小愛老師在，無時無刻都在提醒和支持我這只是一個時期，在課堂上更加的讓佑恩感到放鬆和有趣才能有今天的佑恩！現在佑恩在潛水時可以踢踢踢，仰漂時也可以踢踢踢，甚至還會翻身說還要繼續仰漂。不僅如此，也開始挑戰自己站著跳水了。媽咪最棒的收穫就是在1歲7個月大的佑恩可以自己站在蓮蓬頭自己沖澡了。
我最喜歡的是每次的開課歌，之前都是我幫忙他做動作，現在他已經可以自己完成整個歌而且有時候在更衣室就開始拍節奏了！可見他多期待上泳課這件事，很多時候下課了他還想跳回去，還必須請老師幫忙拉回來岸上。
剛嫁來台中不久的我，在台中誤打誤撞。很多事情真的是從失敗中學習。中文又有點缺失的我，真的蠻常不是大家聽不懂我的意思或是對各位的中文理解需要努力。 但我真的很感謝 Maggie & 小愛老師對我們如此的親切和耐心的關心我們。
除此之外，拉拉手的設施真的是很用心的規劃。我們冬天從來沒缺席過，反而在水裡更舒服，上岸時地板和環境暖呼呼的根本都不想離開了。印象最深的是，CC 老師每次在我們上岸時都會關心我們會不會冷，她的一句問候已經夠暖心了。
雖然疫情延燒不斷，但很欣慰的是拉拉手也有開放戶外透明窗戶能夠讓長輩或其他家長參與小寶貝的游泳過程。
若你是住台中有小寶寶的家長，拉拉手是一個很值得小朋友成長過程來的一個好地方！
