I have a 4 yr old, wears size 4 about 34 lbs. Will size 2 fit her? Is this wet suit most suitable? Or go with the 3/2mm reactor jr one size 4?

I would go with the size 4 if she is a 4. It is snug but allows her enough space to put it on herself. The size 2 will be too small. It's a great suit and keeps her warm in the cold pool.

I believe you are talking child size 12. With that in mind I would suggest ex small or small. It is ok to wear a little big they move smoothly threw the water even when big. I am a swimmer not a sales person I could be wrong. Check with sport stores and see if they carry fins that she could try on. good luck. They do help adults and children.

The jr. size is much smaller, more suited for a toddler. The larger size will fit children for many more years.

The Speedo website has a sizing chart for gloves. Can't remember if they had the kid's sizes. Check it out. Best bet for a proper fit. I got the medium and feel they run a little small but not enough to return. They do sell kids gloves if you are set on Speedos. Hope I was of some help.

I purchased this as a gift for a 3yr old, who is tall for her age. I know they would be big on my 2yr old, who also is tall for her age. It is, I believe, recommended for sizes 4-6. You'd have to judge by your granddaughter's size. If I remember correctly it's all elastic waists. You could alter them if you're quick with a sewing machine but not sure it's worth it. It also contains quite a few small items/accessories I would not want my 2yr old using, although you could just withhold them. Good luck finding something for this age group. I've been looking and it's very difficult. There definitely is a gap in the market. I purchased this as a gift for a 3yr old, who is tall for her age.

I have a 3 and 4 year old and the play clothes fit them both. My 4 year old wears 5t sometimes too.

I think you should try the Aqua Tot - especially since she's been doing lessons. My daughter is similar in height/weight and it worked perfectly for her so she can move around more than if she was in an inflatable.

I do not recommend the "JUNIOR". They make adult sizes that ranges from child size 1 and up. Search " U.S. Divers Sea Lion Fin" and you'll see one come up. They have size XSMALL, SMALL (5-7) which I would more likely order if my son's size is 4.5. Hope it helps.

I would go with the 6 because they seemed to run a little long in the torso to me. I had to send my daughters back not because it was poor quality or anything, she is just 4'10 and 100 lbs short legs long torso. I got her the 12-14. The size chart is pretty accurate though if your son is not all legs or all torso. Hope this is helpful? It was a nice suit, great quality for the price!

Personally I would go with the 8. It may be a smidge loose, but shouldn't effect anything. The problem I found is, if I get the exact size, they will grow out of it by summer. If I get a size larger, they will grow into it, theoretically, it would save some money. Wetsuits are suppose to fit snug, but a little loose is ok. BTW....Amazon sells this stuff called "piss off". It's a wetsuit cleaner./deodorizer. Make sure he rinses, and hang dries. It does to get a funky smell so LET IT DRY ON A HANGER AND KEEP IT OUTSIDE.. on the hanger. Good luck.

Hi Jennifer, rather than basing it on my child's weight, I looked at the O'neill site and actually measured my child based on their sizing of chest, waist, etc. I found that she was in between two sizes based on these measurements so I got the larger so she could grow into it. And it happened to not correlate with her weight. The suit is thick and has a decent stretch to it, but the only thing to make sure when measuring is also the height (more so than weight), so that the suit does not tug in the crotch area or end up hurting once it's fully zipped. I hope this helps!

I had to look on the O'Neill wetsuits website. Click on the following link and then click on the size chart on the lower left. - http://www.oneill.com/wetsuits/products.html?c=27&p=1676. Not sure what size you are looking for but my son is 37 inches tall and 26.5 pounds and fits perfectly in the size 1. (The arms and legs look a little short -- could be an inch longer but that isn't a big concern for us.)

I think 2 is too young but 4 years old should be ok. I had to get my daughter a pair too and she's petite as a 4 years old child but she's 6. She loves it!

I swim regularly, and normally wear a size 4. I ordered a size 32, and feel like it is a good fit. My competitive swimmer daughter, tells me my suit is too big. I think anything smaller would feel too tight.

My daughter is 13mo and is 32 inches and 22lbs and we had to get her x-large (says 28-33lbs on size chart). The 4t looks like it goes up to 45 but i found this brand runs small. Buy and try i guess.

consider adult sizing instead. my kid is 3.7, weighs 40 and fit nicely to a size 4.
