Here’s a few pics of my 6 year old daughter riding her surfboard in the river. It’s not a real stand up paddle board, but she’s still light enough to use it as one. She also practiced balancing as she road the board down river.

This looks like fun, but I’ve gone whitewater rafting and that was hard, so I’m not too sure about this. lol At least you wouldn’t have to worry about sharks!!
Yes! No Sharks! I’m afraid to go paddle boarding in the ocean because of sharks and other creatures! lol
NOW THAT LOOKS LIKE SOOOOO MUCH FUN!!! I am not that great of a swimmer but I would hope that if a 6 year old could do it, I could too. LOL
She did have lots of fun!
wow looks like your daughter had a blast ! great pics, thanks for sharing !!!
I’ve always wanted to try that! Looks like she had a fun time!
How cool is this!!! My kids would love to try this!
Wow… She looks really cool 😀
I would get so nervous watching my girls – I am a nervous nelly though, lol!
Awww….she looks like she is having sooo much fun…and she seems to be balancing very well on her board!!!
I used to do this with my friend when we lived in North Carolina. It was so much fun! It was easier than I thought it would be but even so, I am impressed at how well your 6-year old appears to have handled it. Good for her!
I tried on a bigger paddle board, and for me, it looked easier than it was! You really have to get your balance. My daughter has gotten good at it though, she also practices at the beach!
This look like fun and a great way to cool off.
I’ve always wanted to take my kids to try something like this, but I’m so afraid of the water near where we live in Florida because of the alligators! Maybe when we move back up to Indiana we’ll be able to find a park with a slow and shallowish river!
Oh my…Alligators? I’d be scared too! I’m glad we have nothing like that in these rivers!
This looks like so much fun. I would love to try it!!
That looks like a ton of fun!
This looks amazingly fun.. but I’m sure it take a lot of talent and practice!
Looks like fun!
Wow…I’m so impressed! Great balance and it looks like she’s have a blast!
How fun and it looks like she’s having a blast!
