Bringing young kids to water can be a fun and joyful moment. And there are dangerous lies in the water. So, what kind of kids’ flotation device criteria do parents need to know?
Here are 4 areas that need your consideration:
1- Malaysian Kids Are Smaller. Weight-Appropriate Fit Is A Must!
Most floating aids available in Malaysia’s market have a size guide according to the kids’ age.
If you gather 10 one-year-old kids, you’ll see none have the same body weight. Some may weigh 9kg, others 15kg. How does this relate to choosing a good flotation aid for the water?
Have you ever heard about body weight & buoyancy? That’s the reason.
Buoyancy in the water affects whether kids may float or sink. Buoyancy relates to the wearer’s current weight. Not the age.
Yes! the kid’s weight!!
Sauf Vest introduced a 9-14 kg size to Malaysian kids.
It is the most comfortable wear for kids 9 kg and above, yet they are able to walk independently. The typical age range for this size is 1 to 4 years old, estimated.
2. Toddler Needs Head Support When Floating!
There is a huge difference between ‘neck support’ and ‘head support’.
Thus, for young kids, they required a head support.
Sauf Vest comes with a large 3-Petals Collar™, commonly referred to as the head support.
Head support: Assisting young kids to float on their backside calmly.
This Sauf Vest’s patented features are important for several reasons below:
- Limiting the water entering young kids’ ears
- Give a balance during the face-up function to keep the kid’s face out of the water.
- Allowing young kids to learn to float on backside calmly (this float position is a foundation in swimming later)
All the above are foundations for the kids’ further development steps to learn to swim.
3. Know Your Family Water Activities
What are your family’s frequent water activities?
To the swimming pool, beaches, or island, perhaps?
Knowing your family’s current and future vacation plans makes it easier for you to decide the type of flotation devices to buy.
Some may be suitable to use at the kids’ pool only.
While other flotation aid provides secure fit, safety features, and also learn-to-swim functions to young kids.
Just like Sauf Vest. This kids’ flotation device collection can be used at most water activities where less than 30 nautical miles.
4. Multi-functional Floating Aid – Best Investments!
Are you tired of being a handful during a water-related vacation trip?
Why don’t you look for the following options:
- ☑ Pool & beach usage (you’re visiting the most)
- ☑ Learn-to-swim & life-saving (save you money!)
- ☑ Right size & comfortable wear (your toddler must love wearing it!)
With more than 15,000 units sold, positive reviews across platforms, and warranty coverage up to 2 years, no doubt Sauf Vest is the most recommended and reliable option for young kids, particularly from 1-year-olds to 4-year-olds!
