Paddle boards for kids

Stand up paddling is a wonderful outdoor sport for children: active, close to the water and great fun. A dedicated kids paddle board is lighter and shorter than an adult board, so children can carry it, stand up and steer with ease. That way they enjoy themselves from the start and build confidence.

Why a dedicated kids board?

A kid-sized board is shorter (often around 8' to 9'6"), lighter and narrower, matched to a child's weight. That makes it nimble and easy to handle, even with small hands. Many kids boards have cheerful designs and a soft, non-slip deck for extra grip and safety.

Onto the water safely

Always have children paddle with a buoyancy aid and a leash that secures the board to the ankle. Start on calm, shallow water. A stable board makes learning easy, so the first time is a success straight away. Our beginner tips help even the youngest paddler get going.

From what age can a child paddle?

Most children can stand on a kids board on their own from around six years old, as long as they can swim and wear a buoyancy aid. Younger children love riding along at the front of a parent's board. Always start on calm water and keep the first few sessions short: that keeps paddling fun and lets children build confidence naturally.
