Swimming courses for babies and toddlers are making a splash at the moment as more and more parents are sending their babies and toddlers to swimming classes.
Liu Ying, a full-time mother in Beijing, takes her 1-year-old son to a stylish spa in the capital's Chaoyang district on a Wednesday afternoon for a swim after he has had a nap.
"When I delivered my baby in hospital, the doctors told me that swimming is very good for a baby's' health, so I searched online for facilities near our home," said the 32-year-old, adding that she didn't balk for a second at the 5,700 yuan ($930) one-year membership fee.
