I have successfully tested the Floaties swimming costume I bought Caitlin!
It took a lot of coaxing for her to try it out in the adult pool- this wasn’t the first time we went for a dip in her new costume. I don’t have a picture of Caitlin fully submerged in the pool, because she insisted on holding on to me even if it was just my fingers!
I got this partly because her Pooh Bear round-float had already sprung a leak, but mainly because she was already kicking quite well in the pool- that I thought she should graduate to a more “serious” swimming aid.
A caveat I had made to myself was: The packaging did say the size I bought is meant for children ages 3-6; Caitlin is only 2.5 yrs old. Although she is taller than average, I went ahead with this “investment” as I didn’t want to get the 0-3 yr old one only to discard it in about 12 months or less.
So I asked for some help, & got another piece of velcro added to the shoulder straps, effectively shortening the whole costume (the fasteners are on the shoulder straps, to put it on). This would have void the warranty for sure!
I distinctly remember reading the packaging stating this is an Australian product; & I am wondering if this refers to the same product!
Okay this isn’t one of her best shots!
