 Instructional swim belt September 25, 2005

We purchased this swim belt after being introduced to it during our four year olds swim lessens. Not only was it a great aid then but even more so when using it on our own. We would highly recomend this to anyone whos child has difficulty staying afloat when vertical, but wants to be on there own when swimming.
I love it! May 13, 2005

These are fantastic belts for teaching children how to swim. They offer mobility and support and have the ability to lessen the support as time goes on. I taught swimming for years and this is the product I'd recommend.
 Good Belt but buy with FOUR segments NOT three August 6, 2006

The bouancy of the belt is very good and the quality is good, I bought the belt with only three segments thinking it would fit my 3 year old better than the 4 segment belt. WRONG. Depending on where you put the three segments (since it is hard to equally place them) it flips her either forward forcing her face in the water (which she is not ready for) or backward making it hard for her to learn to swim. If I had purchased the larger belt I could place one segment on each side and one in back and balance it with one also in front. It is a good product if you can balace the floating segments. I plan to buy the 4 segmented one since the 3 segments are basicallly worthless to me.

THe swim belt I ordered was awesome. Perfect for my 3 year old to learn how to swim. The great thing about it is that you can adjust their bouyancy. Take one or two of the floaty squares off and they have to try to swim a little harder. It also helps them keep the correct body position for learning how to swim.
Best swim aid for kids July 11, 2006

Our local YMCA uses these at their toddler and preschool swim classes. It's completely adjustable with 60" of belt. The 'bubbles' are on the child's back and therefore out of the way. Unlike a lifejacket, this does not allow the child to just float. They need to keep moving and therefore actually learn to swim, first by "running" in the water and then by stretching out to a normal swim posture. Once the child progresses in his or her skills, the 'bubbles' can be halved and reduced until the child can swim without any help.
