Since we're still in the midst of a pandemic, a pool party may not be on your social calendar at the moment, but just in case, here's how to keep your kids safe at pool parties.
You may think that because there are so many sets of eyes at a pool party that someone is probably watching your child.

The best way to make sure that someone is actively watching your child is to designate a water watcher, or you might want to consider hiring a lifeguard.
