Questions about water safety

Here are two great questions that came to me after I sent out the first Water Safety email. Any thoughts? Also, I'd like to hear some of your suggestions for keeping cool in the summer!

#1. Good reminder Kimberly,

A quick question that I probably was told the answer to at some point and forgot....I know swimming is absolutely not allowed, but what about things like sprinklers, slip n slides, wading pools. etc......I don't think that ever came up on my jobs last summer, but those seem like "gray areas".....what's TLC policy??

#2. Hi Kimberly!

I know we are not allowed to take the kids swimming alone, but if a parent is there with us is it okay?
