Mommy: Remember the pool today?
Caillou: Yes. Mommy: Would you like Daddy to teach you how to swim? Caillou: Yes!
Storyteller: A couple of days later, Caillou
had his first lesson. He liked learning to swim. And after just a few lessons, he was getting better and better. Caillou: I can do it this time, Daddy. Daddy: I know you can, Caillou.
Caillou: I was swimming, Daddy! I was
swimming! Storyteller: Caillou wanted to swim and dive, just like the big boys and girls.
Daddy: Do you wanna go back to the
water? Caillou: I wanna swim all by myself. Daddy: Well, that sounds like a good idea.
Caillou: Yeah! I can swim now, Daddy!
Come in with me, Daddy! You can see me swim all by myself.
Daddy: Thats it! Hold your arms out just
like I showed you. Storyteller: Caillou walked on the bottom of the pool. And very soon, he was swimming all by himself. Daddy: Thats it, Caillou!
