[quote=Anonymous]Most parents do not put their little kids in life jackets at the beach. There certainly is a danger of drowning at the beach but most drownings of little kids occur in home pools. Drownings in natural bodies of water like oceans and lakes actually increase with age. I think you need to: 1. Supervised your kids closely at the beach 2. Know your kids. If yours tend to run away a lot, are likely to run into the waves, a life jacket could be an extra safety measure. If they are nervous around waves and therefore don't constantly run into them, good at staying close to you, then close supervision may be sufficient.[/quote]
