Looking for a fun way to boost confidence and build swimming skills? Whether your child is just starting their swimming journey or already loves splashing around, Zoggs swim toys and gear are a brilliant way to make every pool session an exciting adventure! And let’s be honest — they’re just as fun for grown-ups too!Â
In this blog (and our video!), we’ll show you how to use Float Friends and Star Savers, and other handy swimming essentials to help little swimmers grow their skills and feel more comfortable in the water.Â
Why Swim Toys Are a Game-Changer
Swimming is an essential life skill, but it can feel a bit daunting for some kids. Swim toys make learning through play possible, helping children develop confidence while having fun. Toys encourage movement, improve coordination, and keep swimmers engaged — turning practice into playtime!
Float Friends: Confidence in Every Splash
These colourful, floating characters make learning to swim feel like a game. Kids can chase, grab, and collect them, encouraging movement and building water confidence. Float Friends are perfect for helping little ones get used to putting their face in the water and practising arm movements.
Tip: Use Float Friends for a mini treasure hunt in the pool — it’s a great way to practise diving and underwater skills!
Star Savers: Turn Kicking into a Game
Star Savers are small, floating stars that can be stacked, collected, or balanced on the water. They’re brilliant for teaching kicking techniques or encouraging swimmers to reach and stretch. By focusing on grabbing the stars, children naturally develop better body positioning and coordination.
Tip: Set a challenge to collect all the stars with big, powerful kicks — perfect for boosting leg strength!
Flotation Devices & Swimwear: Extra Support When Needed
For children who are still finding their feet (or fins!) in the water, float vests, armbands, and kickboards offer extra support. These devices help swimmers build confidence while feeling safe, allowing them to practise strokes and floating independently.
Pair these with well-fitted swimwear and swimming goggles to ensure maximum comfort and freedom of movement — because feeling good in the water makes a big difference!
