Kayaking
Learning how to kayak teaches kids to use creative problem solving skills under pressure. While kayaking, we often have to re-evaluate and come up with a new plan on the spot. There is a rock in the rapid we didn’t see, a branch that wasn’t there a week ago, and these things cause a wrinkle in our plans. We need to solve those problems as they arise, on the river. Learning how to kayak creates an awareness of the natural world, and the need to protect it.
Nothing gives us a reason to take care of our environment more than enjoying it. By being a part of nature, and relying on it for fun, kids learn to appreciate the natural world and develop a desire to preserve it.
