As we were doing our round the world trip we knew that we would be traveling to some of the world’s most beautiful beaches and in some of the most UV strong areas of the world. As such we knew that we would need robust and protective swimwear for our little one – enter Splashabout Swimwear. Splashabout has a series of products that are perfect for all swimming situations. We tested them in various locations and this is our honest review on why Splashabout for us is a toddler travel essential.Splashabout Products we Tried

Splashabout Float Vest

First up the Splashabout Float Vest. We loved this product because it gave my little girl real confidence in the swimming pool. She is a toddler that hates arms bands and as a result couldn’t swim on her own. She loved the float vest and really didn’t mind wearing it. It also gave enough buoyancy so that she felt confident in the water while at the same time helping her start to get in a better position to start swimming.

I think this product singlehandedly made swimming and swimming pools much more fun for our toddler!

Splashabout UV Swimsuit

Being in the South Pacific and Australia with the hole in the Oz Layer, the sun was exceptionally strong. I am a paranoid mum who is constantly panicking about sun strength and sunburn. For that reason we loved the range of Splashabout UV swimsuits. I can safely say that these swimsuits stood up to the test of being out in the midday sun in some of the strongest UV sunshine in the world. The swimsuits cover your little ones neck, arms and to the knees offering great sun protection. If you want sun safe swimwear then you really need the Splashabout UV Swimsuit.

I’d love it in future if they added some cute swim UV hats to their range!

These Splashabout UV swimsuits and float vests have the added bonus that they come in a great range of styles and colors that coordinate which means you’ll have the best dressed baby on the beach!

Splashabout Swim Nappy aka the Happy Nappy

This is perhaps the most famous of all the splash about swimwear. The Splashabout Swim Nappy aka the Happy Nappy offers complete confidence for parents who are worried about in pool accidents. Without going into to much information, I can tell you they work!

Splashabout Nappy Costume

If the Happy Nappy Splashabout Swim Nappy wasn’t enough they have now integrated the happy nappy into a Splashabout Nappy Costume! I simply loved this product as it is one of the few products on the market, swimwear or otherwise that not only accounts for baby nappies but integrates them and makes them stylish. I don’t think there is a better looking baby swimming costume on the market!
