The stages of aquatic awakening

There are 3 stages to discovering water:
- Familiarisation: build trust and overcome apprehension through fun games. The kid gets used to water.
- Immersion and breathing: control your breathing to feel safe and put your head under water.
- Floating and moving: develop independence and discover how the body behaves in water before moving around alone.

This swimming vest is designed for the “floating and moving” stage

When and why to use a swimming vest

This product is suitable if the child is already comfortable in the water but finds it hard to float.

Its simple shape envelops the torso and adapts to a kid’s size, while freeing the arms and shoulders for greater freedom of movement.

The buoyancy of this vest positions them at the surface for their first swimming strokes. This is the level of buoyancy needed to encourage progress and empower them as they swim.

This life vest is not a life jacket but a life vest to assist with learning to swim.
