Children's canoe paddles

[E_McNeill]

Hi

Looking at getting some proper paddles for my children who until now have been using half a kayak split paddle each.

They are 4 and 6 years old but small for the age at 170cm and 95 cm tall respectively.

Looking for something relatively inexpensive and wondering about the shorter paddles offered here

Other suggestions appreciated

Strikes me that something with a narrower blade might be easier to manage but can't seem to see anything like that and don't have time to make my own wooden paddles just now.

Thanks

Hi Ewan,
We bought one of these: http://www.endlessriver.co.uk/kiddy-p-1010.html for our eldest (3 year old). Looks like the paddles you have found are the same dimensions, so should be fine and will be much more fun than using half a kayak paddle!
Not sure how long it would take for a paddle to make its way from Germany, though i'm sure Endless river would be quick, being UK based.

Thanks

Gon for a small and medium grey owl paddle.

I have been impressed with endless river but only had one size of paddle in stock.

You won't be disappointed.
Our two boys have gone through the whole range of Grey Owl Owlet paddles and I need to order a Tenderfoot now for the eldest.
The Basswood makes the paddles very light and for prolonged use we have found this is important for children.

Paddles being appreciated
