Swimming - what do your little ones wear?
We used to just hold him but that's now out of the question, he won't wear the life vest style thing we got for him and to be fair it looks bulky and uncomfortable. I've seen kids with arm bands, or those foam ring things, or arm bands plus something that clips under? Any suggestions? We were going weekly but now not been for a while seeing as he refuses the vest and I don't feel confident without it!

@Sarah-Jayne we are thinking about lessons too, all the weekend ones are booked up here though. He used to be happy just being held but now wriggled and thrashes too much haha
Yeah that's exactly the point we got to and I thought how on earth are we ever going to swim again 😅 I don't know why but he's better at the lessons and it's teaching him pool safety etc
We’ve started swimming lessons so my daughter is getting more confident in the pool. She will wear arm bands then we hold her but doesn’t like the vests either. In lessons they don’t have anything, we just hold them. So I actually feel fine having her without now x

We've started doing swimming lessons and it's made me (and him) feel a lot more confident with him in the water without a float. My little boy doesn't like them but others use pool noodles which are good
