DD1 (3.2) is moving up to the next swimming class next week. She goes in the water on her own and needs a swimming cap.

Instructor said get silicone rather than latex and told me they come in lots of designs. So, where can I get one from before middle of next week?

Help.

I bought my daughter one from Australia, I will try and find you the link. I live in Cyrpus and it took just over a week to get to Cyprus via the UK.

Thanks McDreamy. I'm not sure why instructor said silicone but am happy to take advice for swimming cap connoisseurs.

The polyester ones are great as they don't hurt when you put them on and off. They don't keep her hair dry but tbh I'm not bothered about that, just hated the struggles we used to have with the latex ones.
