Josh the Otter

Description

A tale promoting water safety for children. This is the story of a newly born otter named Josh and how he learns to float and swim with the help of some new friends. Josh's mother Clare explains why it is so important for children to stay away from water unless they are with an adult. Included is an original song which has an entertaining story narrative entitled "Learn to Float". A valuable, fun and educational book for young children. Our goal is to educate children with a fun and simple message: TO STAY AWAY FROM WATER UNLESS ACCOMPANIED BY AN ADULT. “Josh the Baby Otter” was created to help children comprehend and remember this important message. Ultimately, we want to create a water safety behavior for all children that will be passed on from generation to generation.

It is the goal of this app to move drowning, the #1 cause of death for 1 to 4 year olds, to virtual non-existence.
