Our rule had nothing to do with swimming: each of our children got their first small tent on their 10th birthday and their Swiss Army Knife on their 11th. They could keep it if they were able to recite basic knife safety rules & show me their "safety circle". And if I found the knife left alone with any blade open, it was confiscated for a week, after which the offender was allowed a 2nd attempt at showing off his/her knife safety skills.

When my children could swim they were allowed to go to the neighborhood public pool by themselves!
