Arm floaties or baby float ?

We just hold him in our arms - no floats or floaties. We use a vest with attached arm floats for our 2yr old though.

We use puddle jumper style vest.. but he can get wore out always keeping his head up and kicking so when he gets fussy we put him in a sitting baby float and he loves it.. the puddle jumper helps him learn to swim kinda but the float gives him a break.. he's 18 mo and loves the water

We use a puddle jumper on my son. He’s a little small for it. But he honestly is right by my side most of the time. It puts him on his back when he can’t touch.

Arm floaties are actually unsafe. I unfortunately lost my baby cousin before I ever learned that but theres tons of information about them out there.
