🏊♀️ Pool Safety Starts Before You Get in the Water
Did you know the color of a child’s swimsuit can make a big difference in how quickly they can be seen underwater?
Bright, neon, and light-colored swimsuits are often much easier to spot beneath the surface, while darker colors can blend into the water and become harder to see.
✅ Best choices: Neon yellow, neon orange, neon pink, lime green, aqua, and bright blue.
❌ Avoid when possible: Navy, royal blue, dark teal, black, dark gray, and dark green.
Swimsuit color is not a substitute for supervision, but it can be one more layer of safety that helps adults spot a child quickly in an emergency.
As pool season heats up, take a moment to think about visibility before your next swim.
🚒 Stay alert.
👀 Keep constant watch over children near water.
🏊 Choose swimwear that stands out.
