A PARENTING and child safety expert has revealed why you should always put your kid in bright swimsuits. Taking to social media, the experts showed in real time how the right coloured swimming suit could save their lives. In the clip, the parenting pro said: "This is the original video that I posted.
"And then you'll see me switch angles so I'm even closer to the lifeguard dummies and a little bit deeper in the water. "And it's still, in my opinion , very hard to see them." In the clip she headed to a swimming pool and placed two dummies in the water wearing different coloured swimwear .
She then filmed the scene to see just how well people could see the dummies underwater. The setting was to show parents just how difficult it can be to see kids underwater when wearing certain colours in case of a safety emergency such as drowning. And it was clearly difficult to spot the two dummies in the water, as she filmed form one angle it was difficult for many viewers to spot either of them.
As she filmed from another angle, the green swimsuit was much more visible - but the plenty of people missed the dummy in the blue suit. The parenting expert added: "There were a lot of comments like this one saying that they only saw one kid, and most of the time, when they saw the kid, it was in the neon bathing suit. "The other 'child', was in blue.
Blue is almost invisible underwater to sea." She said: "Choosing bright-coloured bathing suits for kids can make them more visible in the water, he.
