Works great!
By Gwen K from Goodyear, AZ on 7/9/2019
Directions are clearly Oates on all labeling. Fits well and is adjustable. Gives the kids a bit more confidence to get out there and learn to swim without sinking.

PERFECT for my just turned 2 year old!!
By KJ from Kentucky on 6/24/2018
My 27lb daughter used this and could float on belly and back, jump in, go down slides etc. She would TRY to go underwater with her head and it would NOT let her! LOVE it and highly recommend it!

Nice quality
By Beth from Harrisburg , Pa. on 6/10/2018
The body glove paddle pals swim vest in the mermaid design fits my 26 pound granddaughter .I liked the vest design because it will protect her shoulders from the sun and I also thought it would fit better then the paddle pals without the shoulder coverage since she is under the 30 to 50 pound weight recommendation.. I didn't realize that the mermaid design is actually more a vinyl reflective applique that makes the eyes wink. It is cute but would have personally preferred it was just a part of the printed pattern on vest. I am overall pleased with this product.

Vest is good, but not the color shown.
By LT130TH from TX on 2/5/2018
Fit: TRUE
Ordered the powder-pink & white vest pictured on the website, but the vest received is the dark pink & purple version. Customer service tried to help by checking with the warehouse & shipping a second one, however, the second vest I received was the same as the first. Aside from not getting the color I ordered, the vest is the same & will still do the job.

Great product
By Cruising Nana from Fort Washington, MD on 10/3/2016
These puddle jumpers were purchased for a pair of small 3 yr olds. Although we had to pull the attachment straps as tight as possible, they still fit great and the girls were extremely comfortable in them. They worked exactly as advertised. I would recommend this for anyone that has small children who can't swim yet or are learning.

Such a great option for children's lifejackets!
By What a fabulous invention for kids! from Lake of the Ozarks, MO on 8/15/2016
Worked great to keep my 15 month old grandson above water while jumping off our lake swim dock into his Mom's arms. He really disliked wearing a life jacket but had no complaints with this Puddle Jumper.

My 6 year old loves it AND my 2 year old too!
By Wvmom from Morgantown, WV on 7/5/2016
My 6yr old is 48inches tall and weighs 46lbs; this holds her very well and she loves it.
My 2yr old weighs 31lbs and it fits her very well (although I'm not brave enough yet to let her go completely free of my hands) but I do have a a lot of confidence in this life jacket.

Independent Pool Play
By LibrarianMama from Vermont on 5/24/2016
I absolutely love this product and would strongly recommend to parents of toddlers. I had bought another product but it was too bulky and my son didn't enjoy wearing it. This one he loves and asks to have it put on. Even though he has taken swimming lessons, he's only 2 so this life jacket keeps him safe while enabling him to be independent. He can happily jump off the side of the pool and we have no worries because he pops right back up laughing. It's helping him to be a better swimmer too because he's happy to try floating on his back now. I would strongly recommend this product although it's important to note that it's not really a life-saving device. You need to still be in the water with your kids but this enables them to jump in and float around on their own. It's like a more play-friendly version of a life jacket because there is no vest part to it there are no bulky parts.

Best invention ever!!!
By Angel's momma from Brooklyn, NY on 8/6/2014
We purchased this for our 6 year old son. He was determined to learn how to swim on our summer vacation. This device not only kept him buoyant but built his confidence while learning to doggie paddle. By the end of the week, we couldn't get him out of the pool!

Love it!! Perfect for our two-year old
By jenny from west virginia on 7/18/2014
This keeps our little guy's head out of the water far better than the vest-style PFD we were using. He can easily get around in it, likes wearing it, and we feel he's very safe.
We have used it for swimming and on a stand-up paddleboard (off which he fell into the water once. he went under but came up quickly and his face was out of the water plenty enough to keep him safe).

Love it
By Lauren''s Mom from San Marcos, CA on 7/10/2014
What I like: 1. It is easy for an adult to put on and take off. 2. It keeps her afloat. 3. I don't have worry about it fitting her body length, like the floatie swimsuits.

Awesome product!
By Barbara Pucci from Southington, CT on 5/31/2014
I purchased this to use as a training tool to teach my 2 year old Grandson to swim.
I brought him into the pool using this and it worked great. It holds him upright and gives him the security to become active in the water. I would recommend this to anyone.

Puddle Jumper okay but fit is important
By Karen from Colorado on 5/2/2014
I purchased this for my grandson and after it arrived, my son needed to order the other life jacket since this did not fit my grandson very well. He is around 25 pounds so be certain of the size of the child to ensure a good fit and that they cannot get out of the jacket.

Amazing
By natalie V. from New York NY on 8/28/2013
This was the best purchase!!! just took my 3 year old on vacation put it on every time we went to the pool or sea and she loved it -easy to put on - she can not take it off herself as it buckels in the back-she is at the age we everything is "I can do it" but even though she has taken swimming lessons can not swim by herself this gave her the freedom to zip around with out be held and since it is an official life vest gave me peace of mind as well -not that I was not with her at all times but i could let her go. I highly recommend this product!!

Saves Kids Lives
By Very Greatful Grandmother from New Albany IN on 7/13/2013
I bought one of these this year for my 4 yr old granddaughter. She loves using it because it gives her freedom. But the best thing about this floaty is that it saved her life yesterday when she had a seizure and it kept her above the water until we could get to her and get her out of the pool.I will always have one of these for every grandchild from now on.

Love it!
By Deana from Battle Creek, MI on 2/21/2013
My son used one all last year at the age of 2. I love how it keeps his head out of the water but doesn't make him float on his back, like most life jackets. He is also able to swim about with no help when wearing it. He can move his arms around too! I only wish I would have had one for my older kids.

Kids love em
By theresa f. from ND on 12/31/2012
I had a different brand before that my 2yr grew out of the weight advised for it. This one is nice because it goes to 50lbs her other only did around 32lbs. Her cousin loved it also. Its safe and keeps the childs head upright well. Also its pretty cute and handy and excites the kids.. I get asked where I got ours all the time now.

Great for my 2 year old!
By Caligal5678 from San Clemente on 9/23/2011
Fit: NA
My oldest, 5 and 4, are already water safe so I needed something for my 2 year old so he could freely move about in the water. For now until he gets the hang of using it, we also put floaties on his arms so he floats upright and keeps his head out of water. But it's not too bulky that he can't get in and out and move around comfortably by himself. We have one more kid on the way and I'm so glad we invested in this to use again. You can never be too safe with kids and water! This product puts my mind at a little more ease as far as safety is concerned.
