We bought this for our 2 yr son old after trying out one that our 4yr old niece had. He really wasn't afraid of the water, but held on pretty tight to us when in the pool, even with a jacket-style flotation vest on. After putting this on and a few minutes in the water, he said "Let me go, I want to do it myself". He swam all over the pool like a fish (under our close watch). Please don't think that this is something you can substitute for your supervision, because it's not that. It can, however, help your child in the confidence department and let them work on building their swimming skills.
Excellent product!!!

My son is 2 1/2 and was afraid of being in the water - he was always clinging on to me. We have tried 5 or more different types of live vests and devices and nothing made him feel safe..until puddle jumpers. He loves it, it is comfortable and he is able to "swim and move around" by himself. We have only tried it in the pool, not in the ocean or lake where there might be rougher waters. But it works, he is confident and enjoys the water more than ever. My son is loving the movie Finding Nemo, so the orange one was excellent for him. This product is very much worth the money.
