Swimways Baby Spring Float Activity Center with Canopy

Okay, forget the "activity center"....that thing just gets in the way of interacting with the child. Throw away the sponge-like floating toys that come with the activity center....they just get pieces bitten off by the child. Now, enjoy the floating ring, put the shade on and pop the kid inside. Fun, fun, fun. You can spin her/him, take trips around the pool zoom, zoom and have both arms free to wipe away the water drips and drops as others splash around. A big hit at our house. I'm just sorry the visit was so short and our 11-month-old granddaughter had to go back home.

I love this float. The very first time I used it, I got so many compliments and my son loves it. He's 4 mos old and 16.5 lbs and fits in it fine. The canopy is easy to use and the snaps on it can be used to dangle his ring-a-links. While we were swimming, he was so comfy in the float, he actually fell asleep reclined back. I'd definitely recommend this product.

My 5 1/2 month old baby is very fair skinned. This product was perfect for "swimming" in Grandma's pool. There are two snaps on either side of the toy so that the canopy can be adjusted to the direction of the sunlight.

The attached toys make this toy a lot more interesting than the $14.99 version sold at a big box retailer.

None of the other reviewers seemed to have sizing issues, but I did. We took this on a trip to disney (I liked the fact that these spring floats fold really small when deflated for travel/packing) when baby was 7 months. The mesh seat was so deep, and the opening so large that it just swallowed him. The water level was bobbing over his shoulders.

I put it away and tried again now that baby is a month older and it's still too big. He's average in size and weight. Also, the valve stems pop open on the outer ring constantly causing a loss of air. Since it's barely keeping my baby above water fully inflated, this thing is basically useless. I wish they still made the heavy duty plastic/styrofoam dolphin and airplane floats. Swimways, are you listening? Those things were great!

I had a version by this same manufacturer that I used for my daughter who is now 4, so I really wasn't expecting these issues. At any rate, the one for my daughter was round vs. this one which is oblong, and the seat was not as deep on the older one. I really wanted one with a canopy to keep baby out of the sun but this one just isn't it, and it certainly isn't worth the price quoted here. If you are going to give this a try, definitely price-shop!

This has to be the best baby product we have ever purchased! She is totally comfortable in the pool and doesn't want to get out. Never does she feel scared and its SO nice to be in the pool with baby and not have to keep her afloat. Its so fun to enjoy pool time with her and be totally secure knowing she is safe and happy.

The big plus is living in AZ she is safe from the sun under the little Cover.

Love love love...

Buy one of these for your baby and enjoy a ton of fun time in the pool together.
