I have a 10 year old and a 12 year old. Am I better off with adult of kid sizes? It probably won't work if it's not tight enough, right?

I have twin 11 year old daughters and we purchased theses sea bands when they were just 6 years old. At that time they fit great and we used them often. We still use them on occasion but they do complain that it is too tight now. they have a small bone structure and small wrists. So it might be best to go with an adult size. Good luck!

I would say no! My 8 year old is big for his age and this wobbled all over even with the sizing piece placed inside it. We ended up using the box for storage instead of a mask!!!!:(

I bought two of these (at different times). The first one has a thicker material covering and would be fine. The second one has a different/thinner material covering and you can feel the frame more... so is less comfortable. I would say for kids and teens either would be fine but an adult may not agree.

Maybe after some time of trying, but overall it's pretty tight and secure. We actually keep ours in a closet, so that would maybe be a good idea with little ones around just as an extra precaution. Hope that helps!

Well I can say that my daughter is 7 about the size of an 10 yr old and it fits but I hear from others on her team that the adult fits better. Or at least for age 10 & up

Oh geeze. It probably would work on kids, but it might be kind of hard to get it tight enough. But as it inflates, it should be Okay.

I guess it depends on your size. my 10 year-old and his friends have no problem hanging on it. I probably could to a few times.

just my comment. I think is not adult, more for children who is 10-15 year old. I cannot use in the winter because too short, just cover to my knees and I'm 157cm. Seem this size is good for summer. Wish is useful to you. Good Luck !

My four year old users them and hasn't complained. I had to adjust them to fit smaller for her, if you haven't already let them out then you may try that. I know that the few times I've put them on they weren't comfortable because they felt too small.

It should be tight but I would suggest a medium for size 7 or 8. Plus kids grow so fast at that age.

An adult is too big to fit inside entirely, but smaller kids can. The opening doesn't close, though. We used it at a birthday party and all the kids just put their bodies inside with their feet sticking out and then ran around smashing into each other. Lol.

My 10 yr old is just under 5 ' and it is a twin size mattress for him so I think it would b a tight fit unless they don't mind not stretching out fully.

I guess it would depend on the 12 year old. My son is 11 and is able to use it with no problem, but he is strong and tall for 11. If you are talking the average size 12 year old, I would say probably not a problem, but it does take quite a bit of upper body strength.

I have a 7 year old girl and she and her friend who is 8 both slept on it at a sleepover. It was tight but they didn't mind. Hope that helps

Yes. Especially if the child is slight to normal in heigh. A larger child might find it short for them.

Dear buyer: I bought this suit, and it barely fitted my then 10 years old, kinda skinny little boy. But then, I stretched it a bit, surprise, it fitted, so I guess it worked out for us. Hope this helps.

Too small for adults. Fits my 3 year old but too small for my 7 year old child. Hope this helps.
