Big Blue Swim School – Wilmette

Big Blue Swim School's Wilmette location offers weekly swimming lessons for kids ages 3 months to 12 years at 3232 Lake Ave Ste 350, in the Edens Plaza strip mall just off Skokie Boulevard and Lake Avenue. Swimmers move through four curriculum levels - Baby Blue (3 months to 2 years, with a parent in the water), Bright Blue (3-5 years), Bold Blue (6+ years, beginner) and Big Blue (6+ years advanced) - in small groups, with 30-minute lessons at the first three levels and 45 minutes at the most advanced. Lessons are not session-based, so families can start any week; the school prices them per lesson under Flex, Bronze, Silver and Gold Swim Plans and charges an annual membership fee per child. Drop-in lessons and adaptive swim lessons booked by phone are also offered. The school states it is temporarily closed for renovation until September 18 and is directing families to its Niles location in the meantime. Big Blue Swim School is a franchise brand whose locations are independently owned and operated.
