Always ask an adult before entering any body of water.

Reinforce the phrase: "Before I get into the water, I must always ask first."

Teach children to recognize safe swimming environments and who to ask for permission.

Role-play scenarios where children practice asking permission before getting into the water.

Emphasize that even strong swimmers need permission to swim.

Explain why permission is essential: to ensure there is proper supervision and to avoid dangerous situations.

Highlight different environments where permission is required (pools, lakes, oceans, bathtubs, etc.).

Encourage children to communicate with lifeguards, parents, or guardians before swimming.

Discuss what to do if a friend does not ask for permission: inform an adult and never enter the water alone.

Reinforce asking permission as a lifelong safety habit, not just for young children.
