Baby Floats and Armbands

Which Baby Float to Choose?

For your children to have a blast during their swim in any pool, it is recommended to choose an original baby inflatable float. Inflatable floats, like baby armbands, are pool accessories and beach toys that children love to use during the summer. These inflatable toys serve as an introduction to water activities and help them build their confidence.

In fact, most young children and babies enjoy the aquatic environment, especially during the summer season. Their favorite playground during this period is usually the pool and water in general.

Water games, pool games, toys, inflatable pool floats... There is no shortage of ideas to keep your children occupied during the summer. But for them to become real swimmers, beyond the inflatable pool in the garden, it is best to teach them to swim and float safely with armbands, seat floats, and other quality pool mats.

As a parent, you might be wondering how to choose the ideal float for your child to avoid any risk of drowning. Boueelicorne.com, a specialist in floats for young children, helps you make this crucial choice. Before going into details, make sure of the following points:

  • Comfort: One of the first criteria to look at is the comfort of the float. Your baby should feel good in their inflatable float. It must be the right size and include safety harnesses, back support, and independent floaters to ensure high stability. We will see in the rest of this article how to choose the inflatable float based on your child's age, weight, and the different formats available.
  • Safety: Make sure the chosen float complies with the current standards. We ensure this in our online store. Additionally, all our floats are made of reinforced waterproof PVC.
  • Swimming Learning: Depending on your child's age, you will need to choose a certain type of inflatable or non-inflatable float. For younger children, it is advisable to opt for a baby neck float or a baby swimmer float. These floats for 1-year-old babies will allow children to discover the aquatic environment with confidence, enhancing their development.

What Type of Float to Buy for a Baby?

Baby Neck Float

  • Age: from 0 months to 1 year,
  • Weight: 12 kg and below.

The design of a baby neck float makes it the safest model of all inflatable floats for young children. Since the baby's body is mostly submerged (except for the head), it is impossible for the baby to tip over and turn in the water.

Note: It is advisable to choose a non-inflatable float to avoid any risk of puncture. Baby swimming should not be taken lightly.

Seat Float and Floater with Seat

  • Age: from 3 months to 2 years,
  • Weight: from 6 kg to 18 kg.

Equipped with an adjustable built-in seat and often designed in a ring shape, this inflatable float usually features double floaters to enhance stability. The baby seat float is an essential for water introduction and learning to swim. Nabaiji also offers them, but in a rather classic look.

The little extra from boueelicorne.com: Consider choosing floats with handles. Your 18-month-old child can thus ride their float without a swimming vest and swim confidently.

Baby Swimmer Floater

  • Age: from 3 months to 2 years,
  • Weight: from 6 kg to 18 kg.

This inflatable float is a classic model, ideal for babies of 18 months, 6 months, or 3 months. It is perfect for learning to swim thanks to its 40° swimming position. These swimming floats usually have a secure harness at the chest to prevent slipping. Make sure to check this aspect during your purchase.

  • Age: from 2 years to 5 years,
  • Weight: from 12 kg to 28 kg.

Baby Armband Float

  • Age: from 3 years to 6 years

At this age, your child is very confident. They discover life with intensity and curiosity. The goal is to give them as much freedom as possible in their aquatic activities. The armband float is the ideal model.

Your child can then truly swim and develop their swimming skills until they can remove the armbands.
