Title: Great fit!
Review: My (small) toddler will wear this without having a fit which is important for the boat. It has a good cut so she can still move around as she wants and it doesn’t push up on her chin when she sits down. It has good features like an easy to zip zipper and good snaps and I feel confident taking her out on the water in it.

Title: Great Life Vest for Littles
Review: My daughterâs review might be different than mine. It took her a little getting used to, but ultimately she did really well wearing it kayaking and in the lake. It turned her face up if I let go of her and looks super cute to boot!

Title: 13 month old life jacket
Review: I tried several infant life jackets for my 13 month old (20 lbs) and this was definitely the winner. It has ample room for her to turn her neck and the body of the life jacket is short enough that she can actually sit down and still be (somewhat) comfortable.

Title: Comfortable for my 1 yr old
Review: This fit perfectly on my 20 lb 1 year old. I especially like that it did not come up under her neck and chin, there was plenty of space there.

Title: Needs another latch. Fits well.
Review: This fits my petite two year old great. My only complaint and suggestion is it needs another latch at the top of the zipper. She can undo zippers, and sheâs already zipped it down. 🙁 we havenât tried it in water though, but Iâd feel better and safer with another latch.
