my 4yr old son is on his 3rd set of tubes and i want him to start swimming lessons. i have seen some kids at the pool wearing ear bands (with ear plugs underneath them). has anyone tried them? i want to know how well they work and if there is a particular brand that works best. thanks!

What can I do next?

i have used the ear band system! love the ear plugs compared to what you can find in the store. these ear plugs are very soft and easy to put in! i haven't really used the band with it much since he doesn't like the band but the ear plugs work well without it anyhow.

www.kiefer.com is where a lot of the kids from my swim program get them. You can also go to a store called Different Strokes (in St. Clair Shores) and I do believe they keep them in stock as well. Works very well to keep the water out of little ears that have tubes.
