Floatsuits
Help your child build confidence in the water with the Splash About Float Suit collection, our original swimsuit-style learn-to-swim aid designed to support children in a comfortable swimming position as they develop their skills.
The Float Suit and Sleeved Float Suit feature a unique 16-piece adjustable flotation system. Individual floats can be gradually removed as your child becomes more confident and their swimming ability improves, allowing you to adjust the level of buoyancy to support their progress toward independent swimming.
Made from comfortable, chlorine-resistant fabric with UPF 50+ sun protection, our kids’ float suits are ideal for swim lessons, family pool days, vacations, and swimming outdoors. With flotation built directly into the swimsuit, there’s no need for a separate swim vest, giving children freedom to move, play, and practice their swimming skills.
Discover Splash About kids’ flotation swimsuits and toddler float suits, designed with decades of learn-to-swim experience to help make building water confidence comfortable and fun.

Floatsuit FAQ's
A Floatsuit is a swimming costume with integrated float bars that can be removed as your child gains confidence in the water. It provides enough buoyancy to support children as they learn swimming strokes and helps position them correctly in the water.
While both provide buoyancy, Floatsuits are designed to assist with learning to swim by promoting a natural swimming position. In contrast, life jackets are intended to keep the wearer afloat with their head above water, regardless of swimming ability. It's important to note that Floatsuits are not a substitute for life jackets and should always be used under adult supervision.
Floatsuits help children maintain a natural swimming position, allowing them to move freely and comfortably as they learn. Armbands provide buoyancy but can be bulky and restrictive. Unlike armbands, the floats within a Floatsuit do not require inflation, eliminating the risk of punctures.
Our Floatsuits are designed for children aged one and over. A child must be able to hold their head up and support their own neck before using a Floatsuit.
