Product Description
Puddle Jumpers Floatation Device by Stearns. Make the water a fun and safe place for your child! They'll love these kooky characters, while you'll appreciate the peace of mind that comes with knowing your little waterbug is safe. The cool design of Puddle Jumpers takes the old "water wings" concept one step further by attaching arm floaties to a piece that fits over you child's chest, which offers up great stability while also allowing for free range of motion in the water. State Color. Order Today! 30 lbs.-50 lbs. Stearns Puddle Jumpers Safety Floatation Device
Amazon.com Product Description
Getting your kids to wear a life jacket has never been easier thanks to the Stearns Puddle Jumpers flotation devices. U.S. Coast Guard-approved, the Puddle Jumpers come in several color schemes, including such imagination-spurring designs as the green frog, the orange smile, and the red ladybug. More importantly, the floats aren't just for looks; they're also a great confidence builder for kids who are just learning their way around the water. The patent-pending design allows your child a free range of motion and terrific stability in the water, so your boy or girl can safely float in place, swim in a straight line, or play with friends while you watch contentedly from the side. Relaxing in the water will never be easier or more fun that with the Puddle Jumpers life jacket. The Puddle Jumpers are designed for kids who weigh between 30 and 50 pounds.

Awesome for use in all bodies of water June 27, 2009

The grandparents bought our 2-yo and 4-yo each one of these, and we could not be more pleased. We have used them in the pool, the lake, and even the Gulf. They provide much more stability than water wings, but allow more freedom of movement than the full-body flotation suits. The kids notice a huge difference, and it shows in their confidence in the water. Within minutes of wearing the Puddle Jumpers, our 4-year-old (who is generally timid in even bathwater) was leaping off the diving board and wanting to be tossed in the air.
Two points of warning, which are not enough to warrant even a one-star deduction: If your child is on the smaller side, you will want to be *sure* you cinch the strap tightly around his chest. Our 2-year-old has never slipped out of his suit, but a couple of times when we loosened the strap the wings slipped down below his elbows. If he had wanted to, he might could have pulled his arms out.
Also, I am not kidding about these suits inspiring confidence in your kids. You may find your kids feel invulnerable around the water, even when they aren't wearing the vest. You will want to be sure their confidence doesn't make you less vigilant in monitoring the kids in the water. No life vest or flotation device is absolutely fool-proof, and any kid can find himself suddenly in distress.
Have a fun and safe summer, everyone!
Great Product! June 30, 2008

I think this vest is wonderful! My 2 year old wears this in the pool and swims all over. He even jumps in the water and he comes right up. This keeps his face out of the water, but he's kept at a good angle for swimming too. Overall, this is perfect, I definitely recommend this!

It's so nice to finally find a coast guard approved floatation device that is not bulky. It's basically like those floaties the kids wear on their arms, except these are foam with an added pad in front of their chest.
My kids love them. They can move around freely in them. I wasn't sure they could at first glance. That the devices are so cute is a plus.
Good for the pool for kids who can't swim.
UPDATE:
My kids have had this for about a year. They can swim, but hey still enjoy wearing it now and then. I get lots of comments from parents wanting to buy them. It's obvious when you see it in action how comfortable the children are wearing this coastguard approved floatation device. The best thing is they are allowed in public pools that don't allow floaties.
Best floatation device ever used!! June 30, 2009

A friend recommended this float to me and I'm so glad she did. I have a 3 year old with Down Syndrome and we have tried many different life jackets and floats. All of the life jackets we tried pitched him forward into the water face first. Water wings on the arms were just not enough support for him. I bought this float for him last year and it was worth every penny! We have an inground pool so my son is constantly in and out of the pool playing. This float is so comfortable for him that he doesn't mind wearing it in or out of the pool and best of all it works. It keeps him upright while allowing him the freedom to move his arms and kick his legs. Being in the water has helped to increase his upper body strength and he can propel himself all around the pool at will. He is so confident with the float on that he now jumps into the water from the side of the pool on his own. We use it at our local water park too. It is also a Coast Guard approved floatation device. Now I recommend it to all of my friends with toddlers! It truely is the best float on the market!!
Fabulous for the pool June 19, 2008

I bought this for my 18 month old and he loves the freedom it allows him. This flotation device keeps his head above water (unless he wants to dunk) and stabilizes him whether on his front or back. This is the best buy ever for water babies!
