We took classes at the Kennedy School Pool in Somerville when our son was a bit younger (closer to 9 or 10 months old). The pool was very nice (& warm) and there were usually around 3 enthusiastic instructors in the water. The activities seemed age appropriate & our son loved going to the class.<br>
<br>Classes are quite affordable for Somerville residents, but others can also join. Location is very near to Porter Square. Classes do tend to fill up quickly, though. If they're full, I suggest getting added to the waiting list because they'll sometimes add an additional class if there's enough interest.<br>
