Safe swimmers. Happier mermaids.

At Dream Blue, your child’s safety comes first. Every mermaid tail is thoughtfully designed with comfort, movement, and safety in mind, so kids can enjoy the magic of swimming with confidence.

​

Who Our Mermaid Tails Are For

Our mermaid tails are best suited for:

• Children aged 6+

• Confident swimmers

• Kids who feel comfortable in the water without flotation aids

 

What is a “confident swimmer”?

A confident swimmer should be able to:

• Swim independently without assistance

• Float and tread water comfortably

• Move confidently in deeper water

​

Important Safety Guidelines

To ensure a safe and enjoyable experience:

• Children must always be actively supervised by an adult

• Use only in controlled environments, such as pools

• Ensure the correct size is selected for proper movement

• Never leave a child unattended while wearing a mermaid tail

• Remove the mermaid tail immediately if your child feels tired or uncomfortable

 

Safe Practices

These simple practices help ensure a safe, confident, and enjoyable experience:

 

★ Getting Started Safely
Have your child put the tail on while seated near the pool edge.
This helps avoid trying to walk in the tail, or stand - which is difficult to balance in out of the water.

 

★ Accompanied First Use
An adult should be in the water with your child withins arms reach until they feel confident.
Encourage them to practice floating, moving, and returning to an upright position.

 

★ Practice Taking Off
Make sure your child knows how to remove the tail and practices doing it.
Ask them to demonstrate that they can release their feet and move to a safe place (like the pool edge).

 

★ Watch for Fatigue
Keep an eye out for signs of tiredness or difficulty.
Encourage regular breaks to keep the experience safe and enjoyable.

​

Where Not to Use

Mermaid tails are not suitable for:

• Rough ocean conditions

• Strong currents or open water without experienced supervision

• Situations where a child cannot be closely supervised

​

First Time Using a Mermaid Tail?

We recommend:

• Starting in shallow water

• Allowing your child to practice slowly

• Staying within arm’s reach at all times​

​​

Tip: Swimming aids like kickboards or pool noodles can make those first mermaid swims even more fun while building confidence.

 

This helps ensure a safe, positive first experience.
