If she is a tiny frame child I would get the child size but if her wrist is about 7" I would get adult. My grand-daughter is 6 years old and has a small wrist but the bands do stretch some.I hope I was of some help to you with this info.

There is no big difference in size, between the two, but mostly there is a color difference.The adult bands came to me in black, while the two child size bands, came one blue & one pink.If I were you, I would buy the child size for my kid, after all, it is not something you buy to last for a lifetime, or something too expensive to spend more time thinking about it!!

Both the child size and the adult size fit me - however, the child size offered a fit that was more snug, and I felt that the increased pressure helped me more (I am very sensitive when it comes to motion sickness). To give you a better idea of sizing, I wear bracelets that are about 6 1/2" in length, and they are still able to move up and down my arm. If your child has larger wrists, the adult size may be more comfortable.

I found the adult and child bracelets to be roughly the same size. I have small wrists and can wear the child pair. The kid ones come in cuter colors!

I'd probably purchase the adult if I were you just so it would last longer. The child size is fine too. My daughter is 10 1/2 and still wearing it, but she has also worn my adult size bands when hers weren't with her. Depends if you feel your child's wrists are average size for their age. If your child has very tiny wrists then I'd stick with the child size. Hope that helps!

We bought one pair of child size, and one pair of adult size, and both seem to be the same to me.

I would say if your son is average size he probably would wear the adult size. We have the children's size and it is very small. They are very stretchy (like a sweat band)but you would not want it to be too tight.

The one I got is definitely for an adult. I don't know if they come in children's sizes.Mary

In answer: They are perfect for both kid's and adult's. Love the fact that not only are they lightweight, but also very comfortable to wear. Hope this helps. Have a good day.

I would go with an adult size. One difference between youth and adult is the length of the straps. With an adult size you can shorten the straps, but you can't lengthen them on a youth size.

Hi, we haven't yet received the item, so it's hard to say. I am the same height as your son and would probably get an adult small for myself. Hope this helps...

We ordered this swim belt to have on hand for guests who wanted extra flotation while swimming in the lake but choose to not wear a life jacket. An 11 year old boy who wears an XL adult life jacket (which fit snugly around his mid section) needed something larger than the youth size swim belt and he used this for swimming. It did not seem to ride up on him, it did develop a slight split where the belt passes through the foam, but he was jumping off the dock, doing cannonballs etc. while wearing it. My guess is that his "waist" is at least 32", maybe bigger. There was still a "tail" of the belt available if needed.

for a 8 & 10 year old kid, I would purchase the smaller size (SM)... the XL are OK for a trained older young adult as the shoulders may feel the pressure... Otherwise I am very happy with these paddles! (I am 6'1" 76lbs)...

they will be too small for the larger 14yo's. I say go with the adult sizes.

Thank you for contacting Active Forever. This snorkel is available in both adult and youth sizes. The adult size is available in yellow and pink. The youth size is only available in yellow. I hope this information will help you with your order.

I believe they are adult sized however I bought the small for my 4 and 6 year old and they fit well. A little big for the 4 year old, but she is growing in to it.

I am not sure, i think that they were for adults, I purchased a small adult for my very thin daughter who is 14.

I'm not sure about adult sizes but the child size I purchased was too tight/small.

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 7 year old head is on the small side and this is way too big/loose for him. I would think the adult size is still too loose even for the biggest headed 6-7 year old. But the youth may be too small. I've not seen the youth so I can't say.
