What swimming float/aid is best for holiday?

[Missmagpie1]

We are going on holiday soon, little one turns 2 the week we go. What is the best thing for her to wear in the pool?

Arm bands? A sit in rubber ring type thing? Links would be great!

Thanks in advance! Also any tips for a 4-5hr plane journey would be great! (She doesn’t have her own seat)

i liked the suits that had built in float aids, like these

My daughter loves this swim ring, it has a nice narrow opening that she can't fall through unless she puts both arms straight up by her ears!

A lifejacket type thing.

She has a seat coming home, yes??? Over 2s need their own seat. Mine were bigger, but snacks (more than you think), a cup or bottle to decant drinks into (needs to be empty through security, but it is miserable spending your flight with orange juice all over you), and screens (headphones or no sound) got me through.

Suits with built in float aids are the best in my opinion. They help them learn to actually swim

Flight:

Floating device: Well, depends what she is used to, if anything at all, and where and how you plan to use it. My children used discs, because I find them the best to learn how to swim early. For our last holiday in June (my son was around 22 months old then), I additionally got him something to sit in, because that way I could take him with me in the ocean when I went to look for turtles ;)

Thank you all. I’ll have a little look at the links you all posted!
