My 8 year old grandson LOVES this kayak!!! The first day we surprised him with it, he spent seven hours on it, taking breaks only to eat and go to the bathroom! He picked up the paddling immediately. It is very stable and light weight. Have since taken him kayaking several times, lake and river (not whitewater). He loves it!

I considered buying this last summer and hesitated, but I took the plunge and picked it up this season. I am so glad I did! It is light and portable and easy for both my five-year-old and my seven-year-old to handle. My seven-year-old can launch it into the water off the dock by himself and it’s so stable he pretends it’s a Paddle board. When he decides to take a swim to cool off while paddling it’s also very easy for him to climb back on in the middle of the lake. Love it. Especially love that we can all go out paddling together.

We purchased this kayak in orange for our grandson as his first experience was in a sit-in kayak that he got frustrated with very easily. This kayak model was perfect for him as it is easy to handle on water, leaves all open for short arms and body and is light weight enough that they can pull it out of the water without help. Highly recommended for kids and has a good weight limit where it will be good for several seasons without having to buy a new replacement soon. It made him look like a seasoned pro on the water and impressed more than a few with him zipping around so easily.

Great product. This is my second purchase. Bought one for both grandkids (3 and 5). We use a tether line to go long distances on the lake and both can paddle. Highly recommend for little ones! Although it can hold up to 120 lbs not an adult kayak.

This youth-sized kayak was given to me by my sister for my Grandkids to play with in our pool. They LOVE it!! My Grandkids that have used it range from 41/2 to 17 years old. They use it every time they swim, even going so far as to turn it upside down to stand on it and use it like a paddle board. It is very easy for all of them to use. They even put their dogs on it to take them for a ride, and the dogs love it too! They have also taken this kayak to the lake and enjoyed it there also. It is short and light weight enough to be able to transport it without using a truck. The children can lift it all by themselves too. We also love the bright lime color. I would recommend this kayak to everyone who has children around.

We have two youth kayaks and love them. My 7 year old grandson can carry/drag it on his own and loves kayaking with them. They are small enough to put in the back of my outback wagon and fit right on top of each other. They also fit great in my roof racks. We went out on the Saco river yesterday and he paddled 2.5 hours downstream. I recommend them to everyone who has small children. My daughter who weighs 130# has used it on the lake too.

Awesome kayak. Got this for our four year old grandson. He can maneuver it easily in the pool and creek. He is excited to kayak in his own kayak. He had been using his older cousins kayak. Smooth sides is great. Looks like this will be used daily on our 177 acre spread.

This is the second Wave kayak we've bought for our grandchildren. The first one was for our 5 year old granddaughter and now that her sister is 4, she's ready to have her own. The neighbor kids at the cabin have this same brand kayak and they all love them.

My dad bought my son a blue kayak and my daughter the pink. They offer hours of enjoyment for the kids and piece of mind for me known that the kayaks are quality made and durable enough to handle whatever my kids's imaginations can put them through!

After I ordered this product, Two children's kayaks, I discovered they were 20% cheaper at Dunham Sports. Because I ordered them and they were on their way, I let the product come to us. They were very nice and they are well made. The kids loved them and had a blast in the water . I did pay $20.00 more plus shipping for each item but the shipping was only $8.00 total for the two. I did not have to go to the store and bring them home in the car as they are quite large.
