What a godsend! I had no idea that Mockingbird swim also had fitness classes for my little man! It's so hard when your child is a little overweight like mine and just watching what he eats never seems to be enough. The fitness classes AND swim lessons in the same location in Dallas is a perfect solution to my concerns with his 'baby fat'. Let's face it, we can ALL use a little exercise and Mockingbird is the solution I have been looking for at an affordable swim lesson location AND gym/ exercise location for children. Pros: great gift idea for family members Cons: not a one

Our daughter has been attending Mockingbird Swim and Fitness since she was about 20 months old. The staff and owners are wonderful! They were sensitive to her first fears and within one and a half lessons she was begging to get in the water and she has never looked back. Now, at almost 2 and a half, she is nearly dog-paddling on her own, can jump in the pool and get herself to the surface to breathe, and swim under water. Everyone who works there knows her name and is excited to see her. They know how to work with all sorts of kids and it is great to see all the children blossom under their guidance.

Out of Birthday ideas? I was. You can only do Chucky Cheese so many times:) I found this Swim place as a great different and AFFORDABLE children?s party solutions. So heads up moms! It's an indoor swim place, that is heated, and behind a glass wall, so the parents can sit on one side while all the children scream and we don't have to enjoy their squeals of joy :) They do a 5x7 photo they have splash bash invites and do pool basketball, noodles, and games. It really was such fun and the staff took care of the games and children while the adults hung out in the front room and got to enjoy the party as well. Put this on your list of children?s birthday party fun ideas. Pros: Great price, and great fun Cons: none
