we use the product for lessons and beach time anytime the water is a bit cool it helps protect the torso from sun also and the kids feel comfortable
Small 4 year old- 30 pounds. The size 3 fit great- snug and warm. Could see how an average sized child would not fit! Excellent floatation and warmth. Want the size four when it becomes available!
This suit is exactly what we were looking for. Our daughter is small and has a hard time staying warm even in heated pools, if the wind is blowing it is all over. Her lack of warmth was inhibiting her learning to swim. Once we got this suit she was warmer, could stay in the water longer, and gained the confidence she needed to start swimming on her own. The pink color also allowed her to make a fashion statement which this six year old desperately loves to do. Thanks for selling this wonderful product!
Bought this suit for my daughter because she was getting cold during swim lessons - it hasn't been a very warm summer and she's on the slim side. Before we got the wet suit, she would want out of the pool after only about 10 minutes. The first day she wore the suit, she stayed in for 40 minutes straight. It definitely helps keep her warm. No complaints with fit or quality - seems to be made pretty well.
My daughter is very slim and gets cold quickly swimming. This suit lets her stay in for about 45 minutes before her she complains (before it was 15 minutes at most, and her lips were turning blue!). She likes the colors, too. We got the baby blue and pink version. I only wish they made the same suit with long arms and legs, then maybe she would stay warm even longer. The suit does not interfere with her natural swimming motions or cause her to "float" like her regular wetsuit did. This is good because her swim instructor was concerned about her not being able to practice normally.
I bought this suit for my daughter because she was getting cold in the adult pool during her swim lessons. The suit works very well, she can even go from the kids pool to the adult pool without getting cold (about a 10 degree difference between the pools). It keeps her warm and happy. I will definitely continue to buy these suits as she grows.
