This, non ironically, teach them early there's places (actually settings is a better word, but a more advanced concept) it's OK and places it's not. Bonus points for teaching them that the less they use swearing the more useful it will be at combating pain and stress (scientific fact BTW), so use it when needed, but generally make your point more civilly.
I have a coworker who has ground rules like that for her kids. She says they're allowed to swear around her, provided that it isn't excessive. However, she instills boundaries on it. No swearing at school, with extended family (who might disagree with her choices), and some other rules. She emphasizes that the context is important, and as long as the kids respect those rules, they won't be in trouble for it.
