Note: Review only, product no longer for sale.
Need at least two more hands? Here is the answer!
Does reflex domination make your child nervous in the water? The comfortable head float means there is no need to manually support your child's head - your hands are free! The superbly designed cushioning system lets the head rest in a neutral position with no pressure on the spinal column. This float aid gives a real feeling of weightless freedom and security in the water. Size: Large : Child's weight - 60 - 175 lbs. Float size: 20"L x 13.5"W x 3"T

Play Tip!
The material of these floats is the same density of human skin, making the head float comfortable and non-clammy. This is not a life-jacket but will comfortably keep your child's head increasing feelings of security and fun in the water. Try putting water wings on the ankles for an interesting change of position!

Adapted Art: Painting with Crayon Brix
Crayon Brix can be painted with if dipped in water or used dry like a pastel.
The shape provides a change and a new challenge for budding artists.
If your child has trouble with traditional cylindrical crayons - these may be easier to handle. They are excellent quality with strong true colour. Of course they are nontoxic, although kids should not snack on them! They are not washable so you don't want them used on the walls. And do use a smock!
