It’s not just the elite paddlers and the adults who are frustrated at not being able to get out on the water at the moment – millions of kids around the world are counting down the days until they can jump in a canoe and go out for a paddle.
So to help them pass the time, the International Canoe Federation and British Canoeing have today launched "Canoe Kids", a web page especially dedicated to the younger members of the community who love canoeing or simply want to learn more about it.
Canoe Kids features activities suitable for children of all ages, from toddlers who love getting out the crayons and colouring in, to bored schoolkids who can test themselves with a quiz, design a racing bib, spot the difference or challenge themselves with a word search.
The page will be updated regularly, and new activities will be added so kids will never be able to complain of being bored. And the ICF would love to see your work – who knows, your work may end up on our web page!
Canoe Kids will feature all the disciplines which come under the umbrella of the ICF, so there will be a wonderful opportunity to learn about new canoe sports which kids can try when it is safe to get back on the water.
So the next time the kids complain they have nothing to do, you know where to point them – Canoe Kids, the new home for sporty children on the web.
