Great for beginning swimmers who just need a little help staying afloat Aug 30, 2010
By JNOLA I bought this back float for my 3-year-old son (it was the same kind that was used in his swimming lessons he took at our neighborhood pool). It's great for him because, unlike arm floats, he is able to practice paddling his arms in a style that is closer to a real swim stroke. Also it helps him stay afloat, but he is able to submerge himself a little to practice puttting his face and body underwater. I think it offers the perfect balance of asissted buyouancy for beginning swimmers who are trying to do more than just stay afloat, but still need a little extra support.

A great help Jun 18, 2010
By Christine B. I got these bubbles for my daughters because they are the same type they use at the YMCA for their swim lessons. There are 4 pieces of foam on the bubbles so you can take one off at a time as they get used to swimming. Safer than using arm floaties too!

Foam Broke! Jun 30, 2009
By Jules11 I was very excited about this bubble because the pads could come off as my child progressed in swimming. Unfortunately, we've only had this item for three weeks and had only been worn about 6 times when the first piece of foam fell off. The pieces broke off where the strap is in the back and it fell off. We ended up attaching that piece to the back and it hung on, but then the new front piece broke off, too. So all in all, two pieces have completely come apart. My child has only been swimming, jumping off the side, and jumping off of a small diving board which are typical things I feel a bubble should be able to withstand. I'm following the original advice I received and going to our local YMCA to purchase one instead.
Great for kids learning to swim Dec 19, 2011
By jdk I had something like this as a child, and had been wondering if they still make anything like it. We found one at our local pool and I then went online to buy it. We bought this for my five-year-old who is learning to swim but can't stay afloat by herself yet. This back float was great as it allows her to practise her "strokes" (e.g. doggie paddle!) unencumbered while not having to get anxious about staying afloat. Perfect for this stage!
For the comparison shoppers out there, we used another brand (Kiefer) at our local pool and I didn't really notice a substantial difference between the two brands.
back float Oct 12, 2011
By Samuel Shiu This is very good for young kids to learn to swim. Good for kids under 4. Even though the Y center save all their back float for their swimming classes and don't offer for the public, I am glad that I can find it at Amazon.com.
