flotation devices
Things that float
Flotation devices are objects designed to keep people or things buoyant in water.

In informal usage, flotation devices sometimes refers humorously to breast implants or a woman's breasts, playing on their perceived buoyancy.
Make sure the kids have their flotation devices before getting in the pool.
