Your son is prob to heavy at 27 pounds, so i suggest arm floaties. At around 2 my daughter started using them and they work great...just make sure to always use supervision.

Walk with child into water holding securely. Have fun jumping. Beware the water in the mouth scare! Next, hold child away from body with out stretched arms. Twirl in circle. Let them feel fun of movement past body. Step three, hold child afloat by just holding hands. Child will want to be closer than out stretched arm the first time, but can slowly move further back. Now walk backwards & let them feel their body glide over water as only afloat hanging onto you hands. Be sure to keep reassuring smile during each step. And for some children, all steps can not be accomplished on the same day. I'm not giving store bought ideas b/c no matter what you buy at store, if it's for a toddler, you should be right there next to your child. So why not let all of the fun, bonding & trust sharing be attributed to YOU, his hero. A parents arms.
